My footer uses tabs at 3.5" and 7", for left-, right-, and center-aligned
information, but when I close header/footer view, they disappear, and become
default 0.5" tabs. Win XP, Word 2000.

The Header and Footer styles include these tab stops, which are not present
in Normal or other styles.

Thank you for responding, Suzanne. My footer uses the Footer style,
which is based on the Header style but I've modified to include those tabs
(and a different font). It appears fine in page layout view, but when I try
to print or print preview, it 'snaps back' to the font and tabs of the Header
style.
I fixed it by changing the Header style, too.
