I have emailed a publication created in Publisher 2003, Version 11.0.7969.0
for printing.

When printed a number of the text boxes have text missing at the end of
articles.

The publication prints ok an my own printer.

How can I overcome this?

Many thanks

I ran into this problem myself. Unfortunately the margins differ with
printers. All you can do is to shorten that email. I ended up testing
various emails with a friend. We were on the phone, which made it tough
because she still uses dial-up. It took about an hour before we finally came
up with a solution that we thought would work for most of the recipients.

You could enlarge the text boxes downwards or maybe set the text boxes to have
no margin on the bottom. You could select the text boxes, format, autofit text,
check shrink text on overflow.
Have you thought about converting your publication to a PDF?

Thanks for the quick reply.Enlarging the text box is not an easy option as
there are other boxes below on the page(s). I have tried your suggestion re
'autofix text' but the option appears not be available to me as the text is
in columns.

With regard to PDF conversion.

The object of printing on remote printer is to get the best copy print out
ready for multi copying on a printer. Would converting to a PDF file enable a
good quality print out to be made?

Many thanks

number of the text boxes have text missing at the end of some of the
articles . I realise that by reducing the amount of text it is less likely
to run off the page but surely there is a more precise way to cope with
this problem and thereby be able to have control of the finished printed
article.

Roy,

PDF is the solution. The quality will be as the Publisher file and much
smaller. If you were to create color separations for commercial printers,
you normally use PDF files bacause of their accuracy.
