Re: Any way to lock margins so they can't be changed?

Are you saying that, when you paste into a landscape page, the pasted
material shows up on a portrait page? If that's the case, turn on
formatting marks (click the show/hide button), then make sure that you do not
catch any section breaks in your copy selection and that you paste into a
landscape page or area.

I can't tell from your post whether you know this: Landscape and portrait
are page orientations that can have the same margins (the space between the
content/text area and the edge).

Hi,

I'm pasting two or three pages containing pictures into a Word 2007 document
from another Word 2007 document with the same margins (but which I changed
months ago from default to wide to accommodate the landscape pictures). When
I paste the pages, even though both documents have the same margins, the
second document (being pasted into) goes to awry to default margins for the
pasted pages, which I have to change every time I paste something. I want to
lock in the margins on the second (being pasted into) document so they won't
change. But that doesn't seem possible.

Thanks for any help.

What are you pasting from? Another Word document? Or some other source?
Which margins do you want to keep? Those of the destination document? Or
