From: Marsalie on
When typing a letter and needing to be sure it is situated properly for
letterhead, it would be immensely helpful to see a miniature preview while
working in the document. This would avoid having to repeatedly open and
close the print preview screen when trying to adjust a document so it will
print correctly. By having a small preview at the top of the page, changes
made by adding lines and spaces would be immediately visible and editing can
be made less annoying.

BTW, I really love Word, but this would be helpful! Maybe it's already on
Word 10?

Does working in Print Layout view not do what you want? Or you can edit in
Print Preview if that's what's required.

Or you can create a second document window that is displayed in Print Preview.
