Is the text in a text box, table, or frame?

Dear Suzanne:
No. The text is the entire document in Microsoft Word. When I try to send it, each line appears alone as a vertical column of symbols. -- EMEN "Suzanne S.

Are you saying that the document appears normal until you try to print or
send? If so, that's a common printer bug. Or does the text appear in one column from the outset? -- Suzanne S.

Yes! It is normal until I try to print or send it.

According to Office MVP Bob Buckland:
It's a bug that is apparently related to an interaction between Word Add-ins (Redaction is one) and some printer drivers and Word temp files. You can often undo it by using File=Print and switching to another printer then back, or close Word and recycle the files you find using Start=Search ~$*.*;*.tmp then restart Word. -- Suzanne S.

Dear Suzanne:
Your two suggestions for overcoming the problem did not work, but I'm not sure that I understood the second one about recycling the files. How should I proceed with ~$*.*;*.tmp ?

They're not my suggestions but Bob's. Search for ~$*.* and delete every file
you find; repeat for *.tmp. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "ElliottM" wrote in message ...

Dear Ms. Barnhill:
Quite a few files came up as a result of the *.tmp search. Is it safe to delete all of them ? I'm sorry to raise such a question, but I am a complete duffer about such things.
