Default Margins not universal

Does this mean that your problem is now solved?

Suzanne,

Thank you. What I didn't initially realize is that I needed to highlight
the etnire document for the option to cover the entire document.

Read the article again; it is not a "blow-off"; it's an explanation. If
you
have not disabled "Widow/orphan control" in Normal style, that alone will
account for what you're seeing.

I have read the referenced-article (id est the blow-off) and it
basically
rectified the problem in no way whatsoever. Again, the problewm is
that

the
document has been set with a specific structure; 6"x9" with 3/4"
margines

(id
est 0.75) and I will have one page with, let's say 59 lines of text,

whereas
another page will have 60 or 61?

If the problem is a design flaw, please let me know. It is alright to

admit
that the designers and/or prgrammers had made a mistake. It's called

life.

CyberTaz,

Thanks for the information, but the problem relates to a definite

structure.
I set the overall document to be an 6" x 9" size sheet with
specific
margins. I maintain a font style usage of the Garamond font style
at

a 12
point size, with left and right justification. The problem that

occurs, is
that on one page I will have, let's say 50 lines to text, on
another

page I
will have 49 or 48, even though nothing has changed in regards to
the
structure of the margins, text style, text font size, or sheet
size.

Unless the doc has been specifically structured using section
breaks

the
margin settings *are* "universal" - "hold true" from beginning to

end. The
number of lines per page can still vary based on numerous other

factors,
such as changes in line spacing, spacing between paragraphs,

Widow/Orphan
control, etc.

If you can more accurately describe the situation & what you are

hoping to
attain in its place, I'm sure someone will be glad to offer some

useful
suggestions.

Does anyone know how to have the defined margins hold true

throughout an
entire document for Word 2002 on an XP platform?

The number of lines of text per page vary throughout a document,

even
though
the font is the same?!

Please help.
