Works: Top Margin of First Page of a Word Processor Document Exceeds Margin Setting
This article was previously published under Q269973
When you create a Microsoft Works Word Processor document, the first page of the document may have a margin that appears to exceed the top margin setting shown in the
Page Setup dialog box.
This problem may occur if you click to select the
No header on first page check box on the
Other Options tab of the
Page Setup dialog box.
The top margin setting on the
Margins tab of the
Page Setup dialog box does not include the size of the header. The text on the first page of the document starts below the header even though the header is not displayed on the first page, therefore giving the appearance of a larger margin than expected.
To work around this issue, make the first page of a multi-page document a separate document, and then set the top margin to the size that you want.
Note To set the margins of a document, click
Page Setup on the
File menu.
This workaround may not be satisfactory in all situations. For example, if you intend to e-mail or fax the document, you must remember to e-mail or fax both documents.
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
