MS Office Forum / Word / Document Management / February 2007Summary & detailed version of same Word document for printing
How can I set up a document such that the reader can either choose to print off a detailed/complete version whilst another reader can choose to only print off the Summary version of the same document without the detail. Hi Ditch > How can I set up a document such that the reader can either choose to print > off a detailed/complete version whilst another reader can choose to only > print off the Summary version of the same document without the detail. one possibility: all the content that should be visible is assigned a special character style, which has the "hidden" text property set. That way, you can print a short/long document by toggling Tools | Options | Print: hidden text. [Or you leave that off always, and toggle the character style's property directly.] Both can be done with very short macros, put on a toolbar for your readers' benefit.

Greetings Robert Signature/"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign | MS \ / | MVP X Against HTML | for / \ in e-mail & news | Word Thanks Robert, The 'plot thickens' I will try and set up a template .doc with toolbar buttons that can run the macro to Set_Print_Summary (exclude hidden text-Print Options) or Set_Print_Detail. It has now been pointed out to me that the doc's need to then be Adobe'd for security so I need to explore whether Adobe has this "reader detail choice" functionality. Thanks for your help, Ditch > correction: > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > Greetings > Robert |
