I need a Microsoft Word expert. This minor issue is driving me insane.

I'm printing filofax inserts (yes.... dinosaur). Two pages are basically mirror images. Identical on laptop screen but when printed one side is slightly off alignment. I'm printing on personal sized precut paper.

I don't know why....

Are you printing by telling the printer to print a 2 page Word doc double-sided?

Could you instead print the same doc one sided then feed the paper back into the printer the other way round?

I've been manually turning paper after printing one side...

And are you printing the same Word doc page each time, or do you have a different Word doc page for each side?

Different pages in same doc

This is wild. Can you not buy these any more?

You need to view the ruler and remove all margins etc so you can be accurate with the placement.
I can't tell from the screen shot where exactly the grids are placed

This is mad 😀 it reminds me of the time my SIL asked me

Sorry, posted too soon! SIL asked me how to record stuff off Netflix.

Set it up in PowerPoint? No margins, much easier to place stuff.

Is this site any help?
Filofax templates
Up to a few years ago I used to print out some of these for a friend.

Check of the offset has a nonzero gutter margin
