2003 files not looking right in 2007

P

Pam

I opened a brochure in 2007 I just completed last week using 2003. Whew, it
was a mess. Spacing wrong etc. I went to another computer and using 2003
opened it and it was fine. Why is this? I have to almost redo the whole
brochure if I am going to use it in 2007. Am I missing something.
Thanks

Different printer drivers will make a difference. You don't have to actually
print it to see a change.

Same Printer. Nothing changed in that regard. Worked fine early today in
2003. Upgraded to 2007. Open the file. File is a mess. Other files are ok
though. I am in a tizzy.

Not sure what would affect if then. Different printer drivers can affect the
way a file appears. Can you tell us more about what you're calling "a mess"?

Sure. But please note, I'm at work where I am Publisher-less. If you can
wait for a response until after supper, we can figure out what's going on.
Send the files to jl dot paules at gmail dot com.
