Mac Forum / Applications / Word / February 2008

first, can you tell me how to see what version of word i have so that can help you in answering my question? thanks i have some version of the office package.
my question is about my margins. i have set them to 1" all the way around and have added a header that states my last name

Why is the default single spacing so far apart? It look more like double spacing. How do I make the spacing more like Office 2004?

thanks!

My old version of Word not only showed the page and how many words in the document, it also showed the number of the LINE I was on for each page. I am a novelist and format my manuscripts to be 25 lines per page and I used to be able to see what line number I was on for a given page.

When I print out a word doc with a picture inserted into the header, it prints out ghosted - ie as if the transparency is set on, which it isn't. This is not consistent from one computer to the next - from some it prints correctly. Any ideas?

A user here has Word 2007 with all the latest updates.  When she opens
a file with an image insert (like a company logo) the image does not
appear.  When she prints, the image prints out fine.  We are running
Windosw XP sp2.  Searching the web I see this error for Word 2003.

in Office X Powerpoint has an AutoShape tyoe "Connectors" which are
arrows between boxes that stay connected when you move the box. Word
seems to lack those.
Which versions of Word (Mac and Windows) can create/display connectors?

Every time I quite Word 2008 on my MacBook Pro, I receive this error:

"A file error has occurred. Check your network connections or make sure the disk is properly inserted and not defective. (Normal.dotm)"

I'm simply using files on my local drive. Everything else works fine.

OK, Word 2004 was amazingly fast and responsive. Word 2008, by contrast seems sluggish. When I'm typing, there is a slight delay between hitting the key and the onscreen letters responding. Very maddening. Does anyone know what's up with this?

Hello,

This may sound like a silly question, but...whenever I open word, the toolbars seem to cover the very top of my open word documents...just enough so that I can not drag to document around. Is there any way to fix this? Does this make any sense? Thanks.

I've just installed Office 2008 - Excel, PP & Entourage are fine, however there's no elements gallery in Word, no menus, nothing but the ruler at the top of the screen. I've reinstalled Office twice and restarted my MacBook Pro and still nothing. As the installation removed Office

My "Normal" template from Word X.v has many auto text entries I've created. Is there a way to import them into Word 2008?

Thanks.

Is there any greek dictionary and greek proofing tools for Word 2008 and where can I find it?

Back in the days when I used a PC (which was last week), I could copy and paste bulleted text from the outline of a Powerpoint presentation and copy it into a Word document without losing formatting. As a student, I copy hundreds of lines from a Powerpoint outline into a Word document

There is this new toolbar-ish thing with "Document Elements," "Quick Tables," etc. I would like to get rid of it. Thanks.

I just installed Office 2008. I am using Word, and the cursor seems to disappear. I click on a location in the text and type, the text appears, but the cursor is gone, which makes it very tough to select a specific spot in the text.

I have tried resizing, changing fonts, reducing
