SYMPTOMS

When you print a document created in Microsoft Word 6.0/7.0 that contains paragraph bordering within columns, the bottom paragraph borders between the columns may print uneven.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the products listed at the beginning of this article. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

WORKAROUND

Manually insert a column break in the text where the new column begins. Use the following procedure to insert the column break:

  1. Column one should be correct and need no modification.

  2. Place the insertion point at the start of the next column.

  3. On the Insert menu, click Break.

  4. Select Column Break and click OK.

  5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 for each additional column.
