Can anyone help me please?
 
Hi teachers!
I have a problem concerning worksheets. When I download certain worksheets and then try to open them in Microsoft Office Word, they are extremely desorganised and all mixed. It annoys me a little bit because I don �t know how to solve it...
Thanks in advance for your replies!Wink

Yes, it often happens...
 
I believe that happens because microsoft word is  word processor and  is not the best software to work with pictures since it is not an image editor.
So  when we open the document the pictures appear all desorganised , and it is true that it is very difficult to organize them, and have not yet discovered the right way to do it .. Perhaps some members have more knowledge in this area than I do and help us ...

It can also happen when the worksheet uses a font that is not on your computer--it then switrches to the default.  I suspect there is something with margins too, but haven �t figured that one out yet.

Hi there! It can also happen when you use a different version of Word. The "new" word is a bit different than the old one and even though I save my worksheets in the old format (using the new one), sometimes that happens. I also get that when I try to open using open office. 

Maybe the person who uploaded it used a different text editor.
