Corrupt Document?

[Montserrat]

word 2001 mac

Hi,

A document will print in entirety. But when I ask for page one to print, or
I add page breaks bracketing a paragraph, which shows as page 2, I cannot
get page 1 or page 2 to print. I can get other documents to print in these
forms.

Somewhere in trying to get these alternates to print, I got a dialogue that
included the words Œcorrupt document¹. That dialogue has not shown up again
and I don¹t know what the entire dialogue said.

Suggestions?

Hi Rafael:

I think you have two problems:

1) In a multi-section document, to get a single page to print you must also
nominate the section. You may want to read the help topic " Print specific
pages and sections".

2) The words "corrupt document" are the only words you need to read
That warning is generally correct. It normally means that the style
definitions in the document are screwed: usually, the bullets and numbering
list templates.

The simplest cure is to save as Web Page, close, open the web page and save
as a new document.

Hope this helps

I'm not sure that's the best way to go in Word 2001. I'd recommend what
John calls "Doing a Maggie": Copy all but the last paragraph mark and paste
into a blank new document. There's more on this in the Corrupt Document
section of the article which you should have memorized by now, Rafael:

Eeeewww.... Beth's right: Use a Maggie, not a web-page, in Word 2001

Sorry I missed that Rafael...

The difference is that Word 2001's HTML is not rich enough to fully describe
a Word document, you lose too much. Word 2004 writes more XML into the
file, so you retain almost everything from he Word file in the web file.

Cheers
