How do I edit a document while in Print Preview?

R

Rutherford

In the previous version of Word, I could click on Print Preview and make any
changes that needed to be made by clicking on the magnifying glass icon. In
Word 2007 I am not able to do this. In Word 2007 I must return to the
regular view to make changes and I have to hunt the change that I need to
make.

Click to expand...

On the Print Preview ribbon, uncheck the Magnifier box. That should make the
editing cursor active -- it does here.
