How:get header to print correctly on even pages w/ Mirror Margins

[Deirdre]

Maybe I should be using Gutters? Printing 2-sided for insertion into 3-ring
binders and don't want to punch holes in text, but when I change to Mirror
Margins, even paged headers print way off to the left of the paper, and some
text is lost. Help!

Hi Deirdre

Maybe I should be using Gutters? Printing 2-sided for insertion into 3-ring
binders and don't want to punch holes in text, but when I change to Mirror
Margins, even paged headers print way off to the left of the paper, and some
text is lost. Help!

it shouldn't matter whether you're using gutters or a large enough
inside margin.

If your even page header behaves as you describe it, then it might be
done using shapes (floating objects, like pictures, and not set to be
"inline with text"). Placement of Shapes can be tricky in Word. For a
header, if its contents do not have to extend into the normal body text
area, you can easily use an inline shape, maybe in conjunction with a
borderless table, to place what you want.

Deirdre's header was created using a table with a negative 0.55" left
indent.

THANKS Suzanne and Robert! Robert's info was helpful, and then Suzanne's
brief statement about my table indent inspired me to go back and try ( could
not figure out yesterday) how to get the edge of the table moved to the right

Did you not get my email?

 

[Deirdre]

yes, thanks Suzanne. But not until after I replied on this thread. I
replied separately/directly to your email. Did you receive?

 

[Suzanne S. Barnhill]

Apparently not. I don't find a reply from you in any of my folders.
