Header Text Lost When Margin and From Edge Value the Same |
Q95110
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Word for Windows, versions 2.0, 2.0a, 2.0a-CD, 2.0b, 2.0c, 6.0, 6.0a, 6.0c
SYMPTOMS
When the Margin (in the Page Setup dialog box) and From Edge (in the Header/Footer dialog box) values are the same, under some circumstances Word For Windows will cut off or misplace the header in a document.
WORKAROUND
If you change the value in From Edge in the Header/Footer dialog box to a different value than the Margin setting, everything works as expected.
Steps to Reproduce Problem
- Create a new document based on the Normal template.
- From the View menu, choose Page Layout.
- Type "This is body text" at the insertion point in the body.
- From the Format menu, choose Page Setup; set Top and Bottom margins to 1 inch and choose the OK button.
- From the View menu, choose Header/Footer.
- Select the Different First Page check box.
- Under From Edge, set Header and Footer to 1 inch.
- Under Header/Footer, select Header, and choose the OK button.
- Type "This is line one." Press ENTER.
- Type "This is line two." Press ENTER.
- Type "This is line three."
- From the Edit menu, choose Select All to highlight the paragraphs in the header.
- From the Format menu, choose Paragraph, and specify 1 line in the Spacing Before box. Choose the OK button.
- Place the insertion point in the body of the text after "This is body text."
- From the Insert menu, choose Break, select Page Break, and choose the OK button.
- Type "This is page two."
- From the View menu, choose Header/Footer.
- Under Header/Footer box, select Footer, and choose the OK button.
- Type "This is the footer."
- Press CTRL+HOME to go to the start of document.
Notice the third line has disappeared. It will not print, or it will print in the body text.
