How do I make margins and tabs remain stable in Word doc?
I converted a PowerPoint file to Word. Everytime I reopen the Word doc, the
margins and tabulated work is all askew. After straightening it up, the next time it's opened, the same thing occurs. I'm using Office 2003, Student version. -- I have XP. Southern gal living up north

Re: How do I make margins and tabs remain stable in Word doc?
How did you "convert a PowerPoint file to Word"? What exactly did you do to
convert it? -- Echo [MS PPT MVP] http://www.echosvoice.com What's new in PPT 2007? http://www.echosvoice.com/2007.htm Fixing PowerPoint Annoyances http://tinyurl.com/36grcd PowerPoint 2007 Complete Makeover Kit http://tinyurl.com/32a7nx "Southern gal living up north" <Southerngallivingupnorth@discussions.microsoft.co m> wrote in message news:C1BEE486-0BD2-467A-8231-79BDB86BEF8A@microsoft.com... >I converted a PowerPoint file to Word.

Re: How do I make margins and tabs remain stable in Word doc?
At this point I'm not even sure how I converted it -- that was several months
ago and I've just kept redoing the margins. I believe I opened each slide, highlighted it, hit COPY, opened the Word doc and hit PASTE. The slides were straight copy. Once it was moved to Word, I redid a lot of the layout, adding paragraphs, indenting sections, numbering them, etc. Admittedly, I have spent more time correcting this margin problem, than I have in restructuring the contents. -- Southern gal living up north "Echo S" wrote: > How did you "convert a PowerPoint file to Word"?

Re: How do I make margins and tabs remain stable in Word doc?
I don't know why margins change in Word.
If you're creating handouts, you might look into these add-ins that may help you overcome the issue.

Re: How do I make margins and tabs remain stable in Word doc?
This project is a math book I'm critiqueing for a friend. I don't know that
the problem has to do with PowerPoint. The culprit could be Word as I've had others tell me they've had margin problems with Word documents. Any ideas along that line? -- Southern gal living up north "Echo S" wrote: > I don't know why margins change in Word. > > If you're creating handouts, you might look into these add-ins that may help > you overcome the issue. > > Handout Wizard: http://skp.mvps.org/how/ > > Slide Into Word: http://billdilworth.mvps.org/SlideIntoWord.htm > > > -- > Echo [MS PPT MVP] http://www.echosvoice.com > What's new in PPT 2007? http://www.echosvoice.com/2007.htm > Fixing PowerPoint Annoyances http://tinyurl.com/36grcd > PowerPoint 2007 Complete Makeover Kit http://tinyurl.com/32a7nx > > > "Southern gal living up north" > <Southerngallivingupnorth@discussions.microsoft.co m> wrote in message > news:FBFFFB74-E4E3-4F8E-8781-A89CFF717EC0@microsoft.com... > > At this point I'm not even sure how I converted it -- that was several > > months > > ago and I've just kept redoing the margins.

Re: How do I make margins and tabs remain stable in Word doc?
No, but you could ask in the Word groups.
