FAQ: WHY do my images look funny

FAQ: Why do my images look wierd in the preview and appear in a different position to where I created them? I thought this error is caused by the differnt views in Word, but maybe not. �Hold on.
FAQ: Why do my images look wierd in the preview and appear in a different position to where I created them? This error is caused by the differnt views in Word. � Before creating a worksheet, make sure the "view" menu option is set to "Print" � Open Word. �Before you do anything... Press "ALT" "Right Arrow" and again "Right Arrow" then "Down Arrow". That should open the "View" menu option. Select "Print" and set the zoom to "100%"

Sorry to tell you that it is not "the" solution. I always do that but I had a lot of problems with the preview of one of the last uploaded. |

It�s not? �OK Thanks I�ll investigate some more...
Back.
Are you sure?
I just checked it with these parameters:
Added an images, double clicked it and on the "design" tab selected the "Horizontal Alignment" to be "Other"
When I selected "View" "Normal" it disappeard. When I selected "View" "Web Design" I lost half of it When I selected "View" "Print" everything was OK
I think that�s the error some people are getting. �They design their worksheet in "Web design" put the preview is "print", or some varaition of that i.e. the reverse.
Damielle, If you�re talking about the ballons, when I changed the view to normal I lost the text, web looked OK and print fine. �I�ll uploads some pics, and check. �Hopefully I�ll be able to delete them before I get any commetns on them :) |

The preview we see on the site is the Print view.
But when you open them you get them as they were originally saved.
The one saved as Normal: The preview was nothing like I saved it. The download opened as "Normal" so it was like I �(the author) had saved but nothing like the preview.
The one saved as "Web" The preview was similar but not exactly like I saved it. The download opened as "Web" so it was like I �(the author) had saved but not exactly like the preview.
The one saved as "print" The preview was fine exactly like I had saved it The download opened as "Print" so it was like I �(the author) had saved and exactly like the preview.
Now all I need to do is work out how to delete the worksheets. I tried immeadiatly but got an error. �I saw a post about deleting ws yesterday I think, hopefully someone answered it. �Wow small world. �You did. It�ll take a few minutes to do that, but thanks damielle.
I�ve been messing about with the images and text and found another way to reproduce the symptons people are talking about:
The preview on this site is "Print" at 100% If you open a worksheet, or create a worksheet with the zoom at "width of text", it shifts the images and even occasionally looses them when viewed at 100%. �That�s all I can think of. �If anybody comes up with something else, please let me know.
