Re: Footer margins in Dissertation - need help!

"Terri" wrote

The dissertation style requires the bottom margin be 1 inch and the
page number be at the top of the 1 inch bottom margin, so it is 1 inch
from the bottom of the page. I have set the Footer Margin in Page
Setup to 1 inch, and the Page margin to 1 inch which I thought was the
right way to set the margin to get the required margin. However, now I
have a 2 inch margin at the page number and the text starts one line
directly above the page number. What is the right way to get the
bottom margin I need?

You should post to a newsgroup for the word processing program you're using. This one is for questions about the XP OS. Here is a portal to MS newsgroups on the web.
