### 6.5.7 Adjusting sidehead width for Word

If your FrameMaker document uses more than one master page, and one or more master pages specify different sidehead widths, tables that are oriented across all columns might appear distorted in Word output; this is because Mif2Go uses the sidehead width specified on the first master page for the entire document. If that width is inappropriate for the remainder of the document, you can specify a standard sidehead width in twips (twentieths of a point) for Mif2Go to use for the entire output.

For example, to specify a sidehead width of 1.1 inches and a gap of 0.15 inch:

[WordOptions]

; SHWidth = 0 (default, set per first usage) or twips to use

SHWidth=1584

; SHGap = 0 (default, set per first usage) or twips to use

SHGap=216

A better approach is to use a conversion template to establish a standard layout for Word output.
