Word document is displayed different on different systems
Hi, I've a word document that, when I open it on my local Mac with Office365, has 17 pages. When I export it to a pdf (electronic version) it suddenly become 16 pages as the document is more compressed, which is a strange behaviour. So I tested it on two other platforms, one Windows PC and another Macbook Air, and there the document has also 16 pages and looks like the exported pdf. The same applies for a colleague who also has 16 pages when open it. So the problem seems to be related with my local configuration. In addition to this strange behaviour, my word version don't open the printing dialog and also exporting a pdf as printable version leads to an error. Excel, for example, opens the printer dialog. Anything I can do to fix this issue? It's really annoying and a NO GO that the same document looks different. I'm using a Macbook Pro M1 with Tahoe 26.2 and Word Version 16.105.3 (26020123)
Word- insert picture from device not working
I have inserted pictures without problem for years. Now ‘insert picture from this device’ produces nothing. There are no error messages. I can copy and paste the same picture into the document no problem. Also it will insert pictures from the internet. I have followed many suggestions without result. I have repaired the prog and also reinstalled it.
How do I turn off copilot if it's not in the options?
This provided screenshot is what I get with Word Options. There are no copilot settings in Word Options in my copy of Office, I cannot find any way of turning it off, and yet copilot has gotten so much worse by giving me three suggestions (at the top of the window, suggesting what kind of content I should make) every time I open a new document. Copilot just keeps getting more intrusive, and I want to shut it off. The more it's shoved in my face, the less I want to use it. I don't know why you're making it so intrusive, I've never heard of anyone actually LIKING this stuff. Why would someone want suggestions as to what kind of document to make? It's far worse than Clippy could even dream of. I haven't tried uninstalling and reinstalling Office yet, but I don't want to have to go through and change a bunch of options again (that I always forget, there are so many options that I have to change to make it usable, like turning off the awful Backstage when saving) unless it's truly necessary to fix this problem. If it gets updated regularly (like the update that gives three Copilot suggestions every time I open a new document), I don't see why reinstalling it would fix the problem. But maybe reinstalling is the answer--if it IS the answer, I just want confirmation that it has actually worked for other people, and not just a generic answer that hasn't been confirmed.Frame Text Direction Bug
Not sure when it started happening, but a former client recently contacted me regarding an anomaly with text direction in frames. They have a pleading document where the firm information (name and address) is included in frame located in the left margin of the document. The Text direction is set to run from bottom to top and consists of three lines of text. When the document is opened with Word: Microsoft® Word 2019 MSO (Version 2508 Build 16.0.19127.20302) 32-bit All three lines of text are scrunched up on the bottom line.
How to add a new field to existing XML Mapping
Hi, everyone! Good day! I've made an XML file which I imported to my doc using XML Mapping Pane -> (Add new part...) and I used it to map some texts. How could I add new fields to this XML Mapping? What I tried: I tried editing the XML file and then importing it again. As a result, I have two XML Mappings with the same name that act as completely separate mappings. I couldn't even find a way to delete the older one.
Als ik een hyperlink gebruik, wordt het pdf-bestand automatisch opnieuw opgeslagen
Ik werk in Word en sla het bestand op als Word-en als PDF-bestand. Zodra ik de hyperlink met een mailadres aanklik, opent deze in Outlook. Dan verstuur ik mijn email met het opgeslagen PDF-bestand. Vervolgens slaat Office het verstuurde PDF-bestand zelfstandig het bestand nogmaals op met een nummer erachter tussen haakjes. Zodra ik dat pdf-bestand nogmaals ergens naar toe stuur, wordt deze weer opnieuw opgeslagen. Dit kost me onnodig veel opslag. Dit probleem is recent vanaf 14 januari 2026. Hoe kan ik dit automatisch opslaan stoppen? Ik heb office ook al opnieuw geïnstalleerd, maar dat heeft niets geholpen. Ook recente updates hebben het probleem nog niet verholpen.
