I am trying to create a document that has one inch margins all around but the first page has a three inch top margin for the letterhead paper. I have gone through the Help in the program and searched the forums until my head is pounding. Neither is helpful at all in my opinion. In Microsoft Word I can go to the menu, set the margins and push a button to make it apply from the point of where the cursor is. Your program is not that easy. Please tell me how I can make a document that has a three inch top margin for the letterhead paper used on the first page with one inch margins all around for the rest of the pages.
I was taught that the standard margins are one inch all around for documents yet your program has a default of .79" margins all around. I don't understand why you have that if the standard is one inch. How can I change the default to be one inch all around each time I create a new document? Why do I have to create a whole new document just to print an envelope with an address? I just want to put the address in and have it print. Instead, I put the address in then I have to create a whole new document BEFORE I can print the envelope. In Microsoft Word it prints the envelope without first creating a whole new document. Can OpenOffice work on this feature? At times I have highlighted text to edit and inadvertently left the text highlighted when I print the document so all that is printed is the highlighted text. I have never had this problem before using your program. Can I turn this off? Thank you for your help. Michelle BELTONE HEARING CENTER INDY NORTH OFFICE 2250 W. 86TH ST.
