Margins in Word

Has anyone encountered the problem of margins not being as set in Word? This is making it almost impossible for me to print labels. I have used different printers with the same results, so the problem must lie within Word itself. For the experts out there, this problem started when I relocated from the USA to Britain. Yes, I do understand the difference between A4 and Letter size paper and I am using the correct reference number for the labels. I have tried formatting my own custom labels, but still it does not work properly.

Hi Lesley,

Which margins? Do you have anything in the header/footer of your normal.dot
template - even just an empty paragraph mark?

Please post any further questions or followup to the newsgroups for the
benefit of others who may be interested. Unsolicited questions forwarded
directly to me will only be answered on a paid consulting basis.

Hope this helps

Just guessing here:
Take a look under TOOLS / OPTIONS / PRINT and see if you have checked the
option for A4 resizing. This might possibly be the source of your problems.
