Hello Helpers
I have a problem with a document in Word 2000 , when I set the Custom size
to height, width etc...all seems fine, I type in my text and everything
seems fine , even in Print Preview. When I print the document though the
text is to the left and chopped off!! any ideas what's wrong?
All other documents seem fine in the standard A4 etc its seems to have
happened when I select custom size?
I would also like to know where I can get the A5 to show up in my word
application?

Word has no control over what paper sizes are offered. This list is
generated by the printer driver. You can check your printer manual to see
what paper sizes it handles as standard. Anything else must be defined as
custom. It's possible that when you use A5 you will have to use a different
feed position. If worst comes to worst, experiment with printing A5 on A4
till you figure out where it prints, then just set up an A5 text block on A4
paper using larger margins as needed to get the print area in the right
place.

Also, could it be that you have portrait selected when you need landscape or
vice versa? It may be that you need to rotate the paper to print in the area
you expect.
