Hello, I will be preparing a book in Word 4.0 for eventual printing on a Linotronic. While working on it, my printer will be a Laserwriter IISC. The page size of the book is (has to be) bigger than can be printed on the Laserwriter (10 1/2x13). I will need to set the page size in Word to the large size so that the line lengths are correct. We will have to print a complete draft before final printing by the service bureau, and will also want to print test pages along the way. Of course, pages printed on the laserwriter don't come out right. Even though the text area is about 8 1/2x11, some text at the right and left of each page is erased for the Laserwriter's margins--and also looks blank in Page View. Does anyone know how to deal with this? Perhaps there is a way to scale what is printed so it will fit within the Laserwriter margins? Thanks! Jane
