MS Office Forum / Word / Page Layout / March 2006Move Footnote Separator Line into the left Page Margin
Hi, If i move the Footnote Separator Line into the left Page Margin, the part of the line which is in the page margin is not visible, anymore. How can keep the whole Seperator Line visible? I changed the Left Indent of the Paragraph Style. Via Normal View, Select View | Footnotes. Go to Footnote pane, Select Footnote Separator, and then changedthe paragraph style. FYI: the Footnote and the Footnote Marker stay visible in the Page Margin. Thanx, Ward Visser Rather than setting a negative left indent for the footnotes and the footnote separator, you could set a positive left indent for the text in the body of the document (and then change the page margin by an equal amount, if necessary, to preserve the look of the document).

I could not move the page margin here, couse of other specs. (if you wanna know i can tell ofcourse). What i did now to solve my problem: I deleted the Footnote Seperator and placed a Border in the Style of the Footnote. That worked for me becouse i needed a line across the full with of the page. > Rather than setting a negative left indent for the footnotes and the > footnote separator, you could set a positive left indent for the text [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > Margin. > > Thanx, Ward Visser If you needed a shorter border, you could give the Footnote Separator paragraph a right indent.
