How to alter Footers in Publisher and Word

[Chriseve]

I have produced pages in Publisher and Word (2003) and cannot get a printed
version with the "Footers" less than 300mm from the bottom of the page. I
have tried changing footer size and page size to no avail. I have also ended
up with the footer showing on the screen but on printing - nothing! It
looks ridiculous (to me) to have the Footer (seemingly) sitting halfway up
the document.
The paradox is that I can get a Header, from the very top of the page, to
print???

Have you checked the limitations of your printer?

Yes I have. But I have tried adding an extra 20mm to the page length (from
297 to 317mm) and this works but plays havock with other printing jobs. So I
guess a sort of solution but not a very good one.

You might consider buying a new printer that supports full bleed printing.
