Page breaks change unexpectedly

Most programs determine where to break pages by evaluating the information
you provide in the Page Setup dialog box. Also, different types of printers
may space text in slightly different ways. The following events can cause page
breaks to change:

m changing from one type of printer to another
m changing the page size in the Page Setup dialog box
m scaling the document in the Page Setup dialog box
m changing the orientation in the Page Setup dialog box

It’s best to choose the printer you want and the Page Setup options you need
before working on your page breaks.

A page prints off center

This problem may result from one of the following conditions:

m You have selected the wrong page size in the Page Setup dialog box.
m The margins are set incorrectly in the document you are printing.
m Paper is not placed properly in the sheet feeder. See “Paper or Envelopes

Feed Improperly” earlier in this chapter.

m You are not using recommended printing materials.

Text lines up in columns on the screen but not when it prints

You may have used spaces (rather than tabs) to line up the text. Because
printers interpret spaces differently than the screen does, the text may fail to
line up when you print it. Try replacing the spaces with tabs.

You can also make columns by using a monospace font—such as Courier or
Monaco—instead of tabs. A monospace font is one in which every character
has the same width.
