strange lines

Hope this is the proper ng.

Recently I have been seeing strange behavior in Word and I can't find an
answer to the problem (probably because I don't know what to call it).

1) Frequently, when I create a document and try to print it, Word
prints the document BUT the last line of text is incomplete. That is,
the top half of the words on the last line print but the bottom does
not. This only occurs on the last line of the page. How do I get the
whole (top and bottom) of words to print?
2) Here in the last couple of days I have begun getting a 'bonus' black
line at the bottom of a document page. It looks like it is in bold
type. If I delete it, it returns after I make a new line (underbar) and
hit ENTER. I have been using Word for years and have never seen this.
How do I stop the bold lines?

Thanks for the quick reply.
#2 worked perfectly.
#1 I'll have to wait until it happens again.
And, as a bonus, you gave me a handy place to look for advice.

Thanks again.
