Printing Summary Information

Written by Allen Wyatt (last updated May 6, 2017)

In other issues of WordTips you learned that Word allows you to maintain summary information for your documents along with the properties it automatically maintains. If you want to print this information, you can do so quite easily:

Select Print from the File menu. This displays the Print dialog box.
Using the Print What drop-down list, select Document Properties.
Click on OK.
