Linda,

Actually, I've got some more basic questions for you. Do you what your
printer resolution is set for? For example 300 mDPI or 600 DPI, and your
actual page size in inches. From that I can caluclate in dots the X&Y
position that you need. I also need to know if you are using Postscript (0X
&0Y) bottom left of page or PCL 5e Top Left of page starting reference.

Ar the forms soft copy forms, if so, send several blank forms to me and I
can play with them to position the page numbers properly.

The next trivoal thing to find out would be the passing of escape codes from
Excell to the printer. In Wo4rd, thi is very simple to do, I'll have to play
with Excell a little.

I am using an HP 5440 printer. It's not just one form but many that I need
to solve this problem for. Also I am trying to produce a book with word
searches that I need to have go to the bottom of the page as well. When I
go to print preview it looks like the footer is gone, which I was trying to
accomplish and it appears the bottom margin is at the very bottom of the
page. Because of security reasons I'm not allow to send you the form, but I
can send you a page from my book. This really is a minor problem on my book,
it's just asthetics to have the page appear to be as low to the bottom as it
is near to the top.
I really appreciate your response

I have the bottom margin set to 0 but the document still prints about 3/4"
above the bottom of the sheet. I am printing on a form and need for the
document to print lower on the page. How do I get this to print lower?

Linda,

Are you still alive out there and do you want to continue to work this
problem?

Please let me know before I spend the time learing the HP's particulars.
