First page of OE 6.0 cuts off left side Not a margin problem?

[Randu]

I have a problem with a Word Perfect 12 table that is on two pages. If I
select all, then paste on an email page the recipient receives the full
document. If they try and print it the first page cuts off the table as if
the margin was at 6.5". The second page prints normally. This is true of
anyone I have sent it to. It even happens to me if I print the mail in my
Sent Mail file. The table is complete when you see it, but the first page is
missing the right side when you print it. My IE 8,0 margins are set at .5"
and I have tried other settings.

My guess is that your copy operation isn't copying ALL the codes for the
document's page(s) (and which no application other than WordPerfect will
understand anyway - unless WordPerfect has an HTML view mode and that is
when you are doing the copying to clipboard).

Doesn't WordPerfect have a menu entry for sending the document via
e-mail? It might then convert your WP doc to an HTML doc for inclusion
in the e-mail.

Thanks Vince,
I have no idea how to select the proper group and seldom pick the right one.
Is there some index or something?

Do yourself a BIG favour and ditch the horrible web interface. Use a news
reader instead.

Using a news reader means that you can search newsgroup names for the one
you need....

Thanks VanguardLH,
That sounds reasonable, I just couldn't see how the mail could have the
complete table when you read it, but not when you print it. Also, why the
second page is okay. I am in the process of looking for a good price on
Office Pro 2007. I bought one in a sealed package with that looked legit, and
it came back as a license problem when I did the update. I had to take it
back to the local store and get a refund. What a lot of wasted time.

I stagnated back on MS Office 2002 (I got it free from a past employer
as a contract perk). I paid for the versions before that. However,
nowadays, if I was to replace Office it would be with a free solution,
like OpenOffice, which would leave more jingle in my pocket. Just note
that although OpenOffice does most of what Office does, it does have its
workarounds (which are NOT obvious) to equate to some features in Word,
it won't support the same macros (not a big deal except in a corporate
environment where they might build "apps" on those macros), and it has
no e-mail client (so you'll have to find another free solution, like
Thunderbird).

For now, try using File -> Send To -> Mail Recipient in WordPerfect.

It's in the same place where you found this newsgroup.

I wanted to say, you are not alone. I am finding this same problem and found
your post with a search. Did you ever find an answer? It is very strange
why the full screenshot appears on any page after 1, but not on page 1. Some
sort of header issue or something. Perplexing.

Thanks for any updates anyone has!
