Totally OT but Microsoft Word query
 
I know someone will moan that this has nothing to do with Australia but in my convoluted mind it has - anyway - when in a word document and you have set smallest margins possible it says "are you sure" type thing - you say yes. When you come to print the damn thing asks every time if you want to print outside the perimeters. Is there anyway of shutting that query off, it is driving me round the bend :rolleyes:

Set your margins properly :p :D



I'm not aware of any way to switch this feature off.

In all seriousness I'm pretty sure you can't stop that message appearing.

Without boring too many people ... :zzz: it's because most printers cannot print on every last millimetre of paper so the printer driver (bit of software you'll most likely load from a CD when you first get the printer) tells Word what the minimum margin it can use is and Word pops up with that message if you try to print outside that range.

But even a bear with my limited brain remembers after a three prints that it is outside the area, why can't the sodding computer. God I hate Bill Gates :mad:
