Hello to all in the community today,

I am trying to print my index cards—one is attached—but the bottom part, the smallest row, moves to the top in the printed document, or at least half of it does, thus ruining what is otherwise a perfectly constructed index card.

This is a new phenomenon that only originated with my decision to lock in the row heights, previous to which the top row was not even a row but merely blank space—that is to say, not part of the table, merely above it—whose dimensions were a best guess. Upon figuring out the actual dimensions of the top part of an index card, I decided to make it an actual row, fixing its height at 7/16 of an inch.

The bottom part, however, is still not a row. I do not know how to make it one! But its dimensions are 1/16 of an inch high, for whatever that's worth. I come to such a conclusion by subtracting the rest of the row heights from four inches, the total height of the card.

All of my margins are at 0".

I have borderless printing turned on.



My printer is a Canon TS3120.

Please help! There are many index cards on which I need to begin!

(P.S. Also attached is a scanned version of what I am saying materializes from the printer. Please note the line at the top to which I am referring. As you can see, it seems to have migrated from the bottom. Thank you.)

I'm not a fan of putting the table in the body layer of the document because as you would have discovered, you need to fiddle a lot with the content and can't simply paste a paragraph of text and have it adjust itself into separate rows.

Instead, I would set up a series of lines (as floating shapes) in the header so it isn't part of the body of the document and those lines will appear automatically in fixed locations as a 'background' on every page. One of the benefits of using lines instead of table borders is that you can explicitly define the position on the page (per your previous thread).

You can then apply a style with a fixed line height and zero paragraph before/after spacing to all text you place in the body of the document.
