    - Word 2003 Viewer Question Does anyone know if there are specific fonts the viewer uses? We have documents that have used some symbols from Wingding2 but they are being converted to Wingdings when displayed in the Viewer. Any ideas? I installed the fonts on the device but still no luck and I could not find any detailed information regarding what the Word 2003 viewer does not support. Let me know if you have any suggestions. tuttamay(removethispart)@comcast.net Tag: scale pages Tag: 103853

    - My documents dropdown does not open then word does not respond When I try to open a word document by using the dropdown, look in menu, it locks up and "open (not responding)" is shown. Word closes down and an error message to Microsoft is displayed. If I use the "up one level" icon I can search for the document I want. I also find that when I have a document open and want to save as, I have the same problem and Word closes down again. Office 2000 Pro. Tag: scale pages Tag: 103852

    - Update MS06-015 It seems that many of us have encountered the same problem after MS Automatic Update MS06-015". We challenge you [Microsoft] to fix the problem. For those of us who have no clue, roll back our systems to the previous version. We were very happy then. We should not have to â??Restoreâ?? for your oversight. After you do this, adjust your updates to take into consideration the effect that that your Automatic Updates will have on our systems. Thank you, for all of us.

    - Can I prevent word locking up problem on other workstations? I'm wondering if I can enter the registry key that this article: See "Problems in Windows Explorer or the Windows shell after you install security update MS06-015" http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=918165 tells me to enter in everyone's computer even if they are NOT having the problem. Employees have lost very important documents because of the problem and I would like to prevent that from happening as much as possible. Will it cause a problem on computers NOT having the problem if I enter the registry key? Tag: scale pages Tag: 103841

I have background saves and autorecover turned on in the options, and the auto_close macro appears to be present. Can anyone tell me if there is something else that might be causing this problem?

    - Word2003: Wrong "Manually duplex" with duplex printers Hello, we have trouble using Word2003 SP2 with the inbuild duplex capabilities of printers like HP Laserjet 5N. The printer is connected with a WinNT4 printserver. I installed several instances of the printer and shared them. Every instance has its own settings, so e.g. one is for "normal" print and another for "duplex". The idea is to select the appropriate printer instance instead of changing the printer settings. We are using this way for many years But now with Word2003 the problem comes: When I select the "normal" printer in print dialog there is a checkbox "Manually duplex" (which is unchecked). That's ok. Do I select the "duplex" printer this checkbox disappears. That's ok too because the printer can handle the duplex itself. But: The hidden selection seems to switch to "Manually duplex". Word sends e.g. page 1 and 3 to the printer, opens the dialog to ask me to turn the paper and then sends the pages 2 and 4 (or vice versa). The result are two sheets of paper: page 1 + 3 and 2 + 4. This has to be a bug I think, or am I wrong? Is anybody here and found a solution for this problem? Many thanks in advance for an answer. Best regards Wolfgang Meyer Tag: scale pages Tag: 103813

    - Word 2003 Fonts missing in user profile Admin profile o.k. There are only about 10 fonts listed for a particular users profile. There are spaces like 10 rows of no titles of fonts and then a couple is list and more space. If I log off as user and log on as Administrator there seems to be all the fonts no blank lines. First I did a repair logon as Administrator, did not help user profile fonts still missing. Logon as user, did a repair and no change to Word in user profile ( fonts still missing) I uninstall Office and reinstalled office in administrator profile. When I logon as user the profile was the same as before I uninstalled Office. If I go to fonts folder in Control Panel all is there. The printer prints a test page perfectly. Apparently the uninstall of Office did not correct the problem, is there a way to del the causing files or folder that contributing to the uninstall not clearing out everything. Or am I missing something. Tag: scale pages Tag: 103791

    - Temporary file overwrites original without choosing Save I have one network user with odd behavior in Word (Office Pro 2003). After editing a saved document and then closing it WITHOUT SAVING, the edits are still somehow overwriting the original text. This will go on for a period of time - several days - and then it apparently spontaneously stops and the program works normally again, only saving the changes when told to save. Some of these documents no doubt should be set up as templates to prevent overwriting but that's rather beside the point. An open document should be able to be reverted to its last saved state! Have checked for viruses and deleted the normal.dot template. No macros are used. Have also tried turning off fast saves and background saves, no difference. The problem seems to occur intermittently both with network locations (Windows Server 2003 domain) and on the local drive (XP Pro SP2). I'm at a loss to understand what is going on here. Any suggestions are welcome! Tag: scale pages Tag: 103762

    - User does not have access privileges I made several word documents, and even a notepad document on a different computer and saved it on an external harddrive. Running WinXP and Word XP/2003.

I have tried taking ownership of the files on my laptop, and on another PC to no change. I no longer have access to the original PC.

    - Word 2003 graying out menu options One of my 5th Grade students is attempting to complete an assignment using MS Word 2003. He called me tonight to report that he is observing strange behavior from Word that is keeping him from completing the assignment (which is due in a couple of days). As he described it, when he attempts to edit his in-process document, he gets a message saying "This modification is not allowed because the document is locked." Sounds like the file is simply Protected, right? But under Tools, the menu option "Protect Document" is displayed but grayed out. I'd expect to see "Unprotect Document" displayed if the document had been protected. Other menu options are also unavailable, the most surprising being "File | New." He can't even begin a new document! When he opened a known "good" document after re-booting, he had the same problem, suggesting the issue might be with the install of Word rather than with any individual document. The copy appears to be appropriately licensed based on the "Help | About" display. I asked him to use the "Help | Detect and repair" option to reset any customized settings to the factory default, but this didn't fix the problem. I've checked the KB and every other resource I can think of, to no avail. Anybody have any idea how to help this kid get access to his own documents? Thanks in advance! Tag: scale pages Tag: 103696

Print: Zoom in Word 2000 and above will allow you to do some N-UP
arrangements, but 3 pages per sheet is not one of them; it may be that your
printer driver provided this functionality.
