Thank you gentlemen for the great in put to the list. Many of the posts on
the tips and tricks page from the messages that come across the list. I do
not have any office newer than 2003 so I keep these posts for myself as much
as for the web site.  

Brian you have been a long time contributor and although Dean is fairly new
on here your contributions are equally well received, thank you both once
again.

Hello Scorpio and Kuenga,

Microsoft removed the button for fitting to one page from the print preview
box for Word 2010.  However, the button can still be added to the quick
access toolbar.  You can then activate the function by using Alt with the
number representing the position of the button on the QAT.  Here is how to
add it:

1.  Press Alt+F to activate the file button.
2.  Press Alt+T to move to the Word options dialog box.
3.  Press the letter Q to move to the "customize the quick access toolbar"
options.
4.  Tab to the "choose commands from" combo box and press the letter A until
you get to the All commands choice.
5.  Tab to the list of commands and press the letter S and then use page
down or arrow keys until you find the "shrink one page" command.  (commands
are listed in alphabetical order).
6.  Tab to the Add button and press spacebar.
7.  Tab to the list box of commands that are on the quick access toolbar and
find out the position of the command in the list.  Alt with the number
representing the position of the command will activate the command.  If it
is the second one in the list then Alt+2 can be used to activate it in a
document.
8. You can also tab to buttons to use for moving the command up or down in
the list.
9.  Tab to the OK button and press spacebar.

Remember that other attributes are affected somewhat when shrinking to fit
text on one page.

Take care.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Shrink document to one page in Word 2010

Hi Folks,

I can't remember if I've asked this before, but thought I would bring it up
again in case someone has come along and knows how to do it.

Back in Word 2003, within the Print Preview window, there used to be a
toolbar button that would take various elements of a document like font,
line spacing, margin width and length and various other properties, and
alter them, upon command, of course, to bring everything to one page.

So, for example, if I had a document, let's say for argument's sake, this is
a formal letter to someone that is about so many words in length, and the
letter would take up only one page, if not for the signature line at the
bottom which seems to be showing up on the second page, which is not
professional in the least.

So, one would go into the file menu, enter on print preview, and, in the
resulting window, one would press the alt key to activate the menu bar, then
control+tab to get to the toolbar whereby you could move to the right 
control+and
enter on the button which had an image of multiple pages with an curved
arrow pointing to one page on the right side of the button.

I found this button to be a Godsend, especially where I was writing quick
format letters that would invariably creep onto the second page with my name
at the bottom.

Does anyone know if this feature has been moved over into Word 2010 and if
so, how does one go about getting to it?

I thought it was called fit to page, but that particular features seems to
do something completely different from what I need.

If anyone has any advice on what I have to do to get this feature back I
would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks all.

Scorpio
