Hi,
I am trying to place guidelines on my word documents like I can in
pagemaker. In pagemaker I just grab a spot off the ruler and have a
blue guidelines for typesetting accuracy. Can i do anything like this
in word.

Thanks,
Michael
 
Hi Michael

don't know much about pagemaker
but if you display the drawing toolbar (view / toobars / drawing)
then click on the Draw icon
then click on the Grid option
there's a tick box for displaying gridlines on your document.

Hope this helps

As JulieD said, you can use the drawing grid, but beyond that you have to
realize that Word is not a page layout application; it is word processing
software. There are other approaches to "typesetting accuracy" in Word,
however.
