MS Office Forum / Word / Page Layout / January 2004Print Selection
I need to print a certain selection but have it print on the paper exactly where it is on the screen instead of printing at the top of paper. Example.. Bob runs fast Bob runs slow Bob runs fast I want to print only the third line, but I want it to be three lines down when it prints on the paper. Usually when I print selection, even if the selection is at the very bottom of the page, it will print on the top of the paper. The reason I want to do this is to be able to add information at the bottom of a document and then print it on the same piece of paper that I had printed on previously. Print another piece of paper! What you are asking will be very difficult to do.

The only way to print a selection *in place* is to select the rest of the text on the page and format it as Font Color: White. -- Suzanne S.

Select everything you don't want to print, and format it to white. Print the whole page/section/whatever. Finally, click Undo to restore the original color. >I need to print a certain selection but have it print on the paper exactly where it is on the screen instead of printing at the top of paper. >Example..

But re-printing the same piece of paper is generally a bad idea: a) the alignment is never perfect from one printing to the next so the result tends to look rather poort, and b) if you're using a laser printer, the high fusing temperature dries out the paper so you get a lot of paper jams. Saving paper is a good intention, but in this case you're likely to waste a heap of time and paper doing it. > I need to print a certain selection but have it print on the paper exactly where it is on the screen instead of printing at the top of paper. > Example..
