    The message is at least partly bogus, but the way around it is to go to Format | Columns and click on the preset picture for One (even if you
    already have just a single column), which will check the "Equal column
    width" box and result in a correct column width. If possible, do this with "Whole document" selected under "Apply to." Then click OK. You'll probably notice that the column width shown changes.

    I have tried to change the margins in a converted PDF file. No matter
    what
    I do, I keep getting this error message. Any suggestions?


    THANK YOU SUZANNE
