- Differences from workstation to workstation
- Posted by L.White on August 26th, 2005
Hello,
I have a document that looks and prints out differently from one workstation
to another. Does anyone have any suggestions for trouble shooting this? The
document is stored on our network so each work station is opening the same
file.

Hi, L.
It may be that they each have a different default printer, which will change
how the document is formatted on the screen slightly.
If that isn't it, could you provide more details about what is different
between the views on workstations?

Hello,
While it might very well be the printer I did not realize that printer
options would change the view you see unless you were to click print
preview.
What is happening is that I have a row in the sheet with space in-between
the words. When the sheet is printed this leaves enough room for someone to
make notes between them. The first word shows up on the line before it on
one machine and shows up in the correct location on the other. Printing is
as seen on the computer in question.
Both machine are set to view print layout.

Documents in print layout view are formatted for the default printer. Do
they both use the same printer?
If it's the same printer, I don't know why they would format differently,
unless perhaps one system is using an older driver from the other. If it's
a different printer, then there may be ways that you can fix the formatting
to print no matter what printer driver is being used.

Another thing to check: if the font being used in the document isn't
available on both systems, then a substitution might be occurring, which
could change the formatting.
