I've noticed this bug.  I print front-to-back.  You could also try specifying
the page numbers you want printed, including section numbers:  in my case,
from 1s1 to 56s3.  That would print from section one, page one to section
three, page 56.

I was bitten by an even stranger bug today.  I set up a paper to print on
the laserwriter and printed part of it to a file.  I then quit, selected
the imagewriter, and tried to print part of the paper.  Every line that
printed had a 0 (zero) on either side of it!

	0It looked something like this.0

The only way I could find to make it stop doing that was to reboot and shift-
repaginate.

Do y'all still find lots of bugs in word 3.01?  I must run across a couple 
every week.  Formulas that don't print, keystrokes missed, bombs, . . .
