Page Layout Changes Between Notebook & PC

When viewing a word document on a Compaq Evo N1020v
notebook, pages split differently to what they appear on
the PC.

For example, document text which fits to a page on the
PC, gets pushed onto 2 pages when viewing on the Compaq
(exactly same document with no changes made). It's
almost like the page is more spaced out or is scaled up -
but it's the same document.

This is not a problem occuring with an isolated document,
but every document.

We've checked screen resolution, paragraph spacing, paper
size, fonts, printer setup & cannot find any fix. Any
help on this would be much appreciated.

Thanks

One possibility is that you probably have different printers selected as
the "current printer" on the notebook and on the desktop PCs. Try
selecting the same printer on both and see if that makes the pagination
differences go away.

Another possibility is that one computer is running Windows XP, but the
other is not. Windows XP uses a different printer driver for a given
printer than older versions of Windows. The differences between the
printer drivers can cause differences in pagination.
