[MSFT WORD] When I change View, all docs change. Why?

[idh1oi12jkl31jk2bgve3jk12b]

So I go to View, then I chose "WEB LAYOUT".

 

But then ALL my docs change to this view. I want only this specific document to change to this view. Not all of them. 

 

How?

 

Thx so much

The View menu isn't document based, it's a global setting for the app itself. If you have multiple documents open at once, it'll just change the one document to the web layout where you choose that. But the next time the app launches, it remembers the last setting you've used. As far as I'm aware, there's no per document setting that would allow you to use web view for a single file.

Microsoft can be annoying sometimes indeed... like I am trying print from excel, but it offers me to save as PDF instead as 1st option...

If it's going to web anyway, why not work with google docs?

Instead of changing how document looks every time you can save it in certain way.

In your case if you want to be certain document looks the same on other computers saving it as PDF is what you need.
