Use Keynote for creating 3x5 notecards
I have noticed a similar (the same?) problem as well. If a Word X document has a footer, it cannot be located less than 0.55" (on my printer) from the edge (bottom of page). Yet, in other applications, I can print right up to the edge of the page which suggests the problem is with Word not my printer. I have searched for solutions to this problem in MS's knowledge base to no avail.
Use Keynote for creating 3x5 notecards
This is a well known bug in MS Office. The default bottom margin has been changed from 0.25" to 0.56", check out Google Newsgroups for more info.
I get round it by using custom paper sizes. It's important to set your Page Setup so that it does not format for any particular printer, or else your custom paper size gets overriden. Word also seems to 'forget' my custom paper size between each print... In the newsgroups, there are liberal amounts of dogma being applied on the topic about whether this is Word's fault or OS X. My money is on Word. Not only do all my other apps work fine, but there is another Word printing 'bug' where each section of a document is printed separately, stopping you from easily producing PDF versions of complex documents. When you take these into account, it does rather look like M$ may be doing this on purpose. KB articles at support.microsoft.com even state that this is 'by design'. It certainly makes it difficult when working on complex documents with PC users as you often end up with missing footers and multi-part PDF proofs. Good luck! |
