SUMMARY
In Word for Windows, if you create a one-page document that contains two
sections and format both sections for Justified vertical alignment using
the Section Layout command from the Format menu, the sections may overlap
when you print the document or view it in the print preview window.
The document displays correctly in normal view and page layout view (by
design, Word does not display the vertical alignment formatting in
page layout view).
MORE INFORMATION
Word vertically justifies each section separately on the page, which
causes section 1 to superimpose itself on section 2.
Note: This problem does not occur in versions 1.x of Word for Windows.
In versions 1.x, Word ignores such incompatible vertical justification,
so the sections do not overlap.
WORKAROUND- Replace the Continuous section break with a Next Page section break.
This causes each section to appear vertically justified on a separate
page.
-or-
- Remove the Justified vertical alignment formatting. To do this, select
the entire document and choose Section Layout from the Format menu.
Clear the Justified option under Vertical Alignment and choose the OK
button.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in versions 2.0, 2.0a, 2.0a-
CD, 2.0b, 2.0c, 6.0 of Word for Windows. We are researching this problem
and will post new information here as it becomes available.
