I'd say that the start screen doesn't bypass the password protection
mechanism in any way: it doesn't disclose a preview of the document, nor
keep an unencrypted copy anywhere.
Indeed. There must be another problem with Gilberts situation.

Hi :)
Is there some way of rolling out the paper size to all documents or is it
now fixed in them all and needs changing for each and every document?
If MSO is picking up on the correct paper-size then i guess the correct
drivers are there.

Bruce,
Your post is very timely. I've been wrestling with a document containing
15 photographs with captions. I wanted to insert them into the text with
text wrapping around the pictures. I made numerous attempts and often
found myself trying to move or resize a picture just a little bit.
