Hi Bob,
Thnx for your reply.
The Word version is 2000.
I have tried to recreate the page in Word and export it to HTML. Problem is
that the margin text is made an image by Word! (I used textframe for
positioning...)
As far as I could think of no other solution than using tables fits my
needs.
A little example:
margintext This is the normal text
This is the normal text
This is the normal text
This is the normal text
For HTML, I used margin-left:15%; for the normal text, <div> with
position:absolute and left:1% for the margintext.
