I file-options-advanced and checked 'Show vertical ruler in Print Layout View'



Under View, Ruler box is checked.

Under View, the Print Layout icon is grayed out.

I see no vertical ruler on the page, and no icon at the top of the vertical scroll bar to click on.

Thanks much for your feedback.

Do you actually have a document opened?

Yes. Doc was open. I made all the setting I thought were needed but saw no vertical bar. Horiz bar does appear.

In that case, the implication is that you can't select Print Layout view. So does this happen with:
• all documents; or
• a particular document?
If it's happening with a particular document, what do you have selected when you're trying to change the view?

Can you go under the View tab and select Print Layout view?
