Current Style indicator

I'm a new user of Word (2007) with a WinXP SP3 system. I've used WordPerfect for many years. Recently, I brought into Word a letter, with my letterhead, that I had created in WP. I deleted the body of the letter and typed a new letter. It looked fine on screen; but when I printed it, there were all sorts of weird spacings. For example: extra spaces between some words (the text is left j...

Text pane covers some article text.
I'm a new user of Microsoft Word. I'm typing an 85+page story. I inserted a picture into my story text. The story text wrapped around the picture nicely. Then I drew a textbox below the picture and typed in the text pane. The text pane now covers part of my story text. How can I uncover it? I've tried working with Textwrap, but without success. Thank you....

Altering left margin but keeping tab positions unchanged?
Is there a way of changing the left hand margin of a document but keeping any tabs and indents in their old positions on the page, rather than having them change too? Apart, I mean, from the obvious method of resetting the tabs manually. In other words, if I have a document with these settings: left margin: 3.3 cms tabs: 2 cms, 4 cms and I want to change the left margin to 2.3 ...

I have Office XP and I have scanned an image (jpg) of my signature in order to paste it onto a letter. However, the image box background always has a faint gray background that does show on the printed page but is not there on the monitor. I have played with the image contrast to eliminate it and it apparently is not in the image itself. Any suggestions?? Thanks, Larry ...
