WD2000: Unexpected Results When Printing in Master Document

• Microsoft Word 2000

SYMPTOMS

When you print a master document in outline view, Microsoft Word does not print as expected, for example:

• Word does not print objects set as Float over text that have been inserted into subdocuments.
  
  -or-



• Word may not print the entire document.

CAUSE

Outline view is not designed to print your entire document. It is designed for you to control the amount of detail you want to print.

WORKAROUND

Switch to either normal or print layout view, and then print the document.

MORE INFORMATION

Outline view helps you organize and maintain a long document, such as a book or a multi-part report, that is divided into several smaller documents called "subdocuments." In outline view, you can work in a single document window and still see the overall organization of the subdocuments. This view is not designed to print your entire document. Outline view is designed for you to control the amount of detail you want to print. For example, when you want to print just an outline, collapse the information to show only what you want to print. When you print from outline view, only what is shown on the screen is printed.
