Since the content of my Word document changes, which results in a dynamic verticality, I was having a difficult time calculating where to insert the signature field without a marker that would move with my content. Shapes act strangely and inconsistently, at least in my experience. All the bookmark does, in this case, is serve as that moving marker, and it seems to be far more stable than my previous method of using a shape.

Previously, all the advice I received was that the vertical position of a bookmark was not attainable. I was really glad to finally learn differently. And it came from a fairly old post I just stumbled upon.

The horizontal position is not a problem since it's based on my left margin, but I do realize I can get the offset the same way if needed.

If there is a better suggestion as to how I might do this more effeciently I'd love to read it.

Thanks.
