Archive Fanfic Reformatting Tutorial - 11/18/06 01:14 AM
Several people have mentioned how they reformat fanfic in Microsoft Word from the archive for more efficient printing and/or easier reading. And several more people have mentioned that they don't know how. Someone taught me years ago, so I thought I'd share the knowledge.
(Above is two different ways to do the same thing.)
Note: This story's format does not include a space after hard returns. Some stories that are archived do have a space. For those stories that do have it, put nothing in the "replace with" section.
From here you can change font, adjust margins and font size. Personally, when I print fic, I use 0.5" margins and 8pt Times font--just about as many words as you can fit on a page.
