Document Layout Views

The Three Stooges

Larry: I can’t see! I can’t see!

Moe: What’ sa matta?

Larry: I’ve got my eyes closed.

[The Three Stooges]

You may not have your eyes closed, but a document layout view may keep you from seeing the headers and footers.

If any document layout view is used except Print Layout, the headers and footers are not visible. The Print Preview command will allow you to view the headers and footers, but who wants to keep switching back and forth with one or more pages to see how the document looks before printing. The idea of a word processor is to see the document as it will look, as it is being typed.

Make sure the document layout view is set to Print Layout in:

  • the Word 2003 View menu, or
  • the Document Views group of the View tab in Word 2007.
