Bottom margin issues

G

Guest

I am working with a document that was generated by someone else and am having
some major issues with the page margins. The paragraph at the bottom of page
1 breaks long before it reaches the margin, which is set at 1". I have read
all of the posts here and tried Widow/Orphan Control, deactivating comments
and track changes, viewing Final instead of Final with Markup, and anything
else that has been mentioned. Nothing has worked.

This is not the first time I have seen this problem. In the past, I've
resolved it by cutting and pating into a new document, but I'd really like to
know why this happens and how I can fix it in the future without having to
create a whole new document. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Please disregard this question....I played around with it some more and
figured it out. For some reason, a drawing box was set up inside the footer,
with several paragraphs inside. I removed the drawing box and voila!

Sorry for any inconvenience!
