Re: Printing in Office 2004 vs. Office X



Please disregard this. Soon as it posted, I found the version number.
Will try your suggestion. Thanks.

Thank you. Live and learn. THere is indeed a dot next to the font I
am using (Times New Roman.) And when I expand it, there is a dot next
to Bold, Bold Italic, Italic and Regular. There are duplicates of each
of these. I am not able, however to "hover over" each one to see the
version number. Should I just disable the ones with the dot? How can
I find the version number?
Thanks for your help

What do you mean, "Open the FontBook application?"

It could be because Office 2004 uses some different (Unicode) fonts than
Office X, even though the names are the same (like Times New Roman). If
that's the case, you *may* be able to solve the problem by using FontBook to
disable the Unicode version of the font. That would force Office 2004 to
use the same version as Office X.

Open the FontBook application. On the left, select All Fonts and navigate
to the font you've used in the document. If there's a dot to the right of
the font name, then you have duplicate versions.

Click on the expand arrow to the left of the font name. Hover over each
duplicate to see a balloon which will give you the font's version number.
Disable the dupe with the highest version number by selecting it and
clicking Disable.

Now try printing again and see if it makes a difference.

By the way, Unicode fonts have many more characters available than
non-Unicode fonts, so you'll probably want to re-enable the Unicode version
of the font when you're done printing the doc.

I am trying to print a document that was created in Office X. When I
open that document in Office 2004 and print it, it looks different on
the page - different margins. When I look at it in Print Preview, it
looks as it should. None of the margins in the document have been
changed. It just looks different printed in 2004. Fortunately, I can
still open the document in Office X and print it out that way, but of
course I would prefer not to have to do that. When I installed Office
2004, I did it by uninstalling the Test Drive program, and doing a
standard (not custom) install. What do I need to do to ensure the
document prints properly in 2004?
Thank you
