Because you're probably using an HP printer and their print drivers are screwed up on some printers...particularly home/color printers. What one are you using? If it is an HP, like 800 series or such, you'll have to pull the margin up to a min of about 0.75 at the bottom. The driver SHOULD force it up...but it doesn't. Even if you don't have an HP...this could still be the problem. It's just that several HP home printers are notorious for this problem. Dian D.

When I look at Print Preview, I don't see the footer at all. When I print it, there is no footer. When I convert it to PDF format, I see the footer. Why am I having trouble seeing it in Word?
