I am trying to create a greeting card in Word 2007, on a 4in x 6in card. I have inserted a jpeg on one half of the card (so it appears on the front when folded) and set up my printer (a Canon iP4700) to print it. The preview looks fine, but the printed card isn't. The picture appears just below centre of the whole page rather than at the bottom where the preview has it. Any ideas, please?
Thanks
 
Check your paper size (real source size) vs. how it's set up in Word, i.e. Letter vs A4. If they don't match, it won't print the same.


Best Regards,
Scott

Thanks, TheManiac! I have the real source size set to 4ins x 6ins (which is the size of card I'm putting in the printer), and also the size in Word as 4ins x 6ins - the ruler confirms this. i.e. under Print Properties/Quick Setup I have Printer Paper Size as 4in x 6in, in Page Set-Up I have Page Size as 4in x 6in and page layout as normal size. Still no joy. The picture also is not as big as it is on the preview and as it should be, as well as printing out roughly half way down the page.
