Error message: Footer outside Print area

MEW

Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) Processor: Intel I keep getting this error message:
"Footer in section 1 (also 2, 3, ...) is set outside the printable area of page."

Forums search yiellded responses that did not help. Basically "its a problem with your printer." But NO details.... no info on how where to go or how to solve.

Help?

Well, normally it's a problem with the margins of your page or the
positioning of your Footer :)

Go to Format>Document and set the footer so that its bottom edge is no
closer than 1.25 cm from the edge of the paper. Then ensure that your
Margin is set large enough to ensure that the inside edge (top) of the
Footer is no closer than one cm from the body text.


I was going to suggest that you look in the Word help for this, but don't
bother, what isn't rubbish is wrong :)
