Word for the web

​​​​​​​Preview your document in Word for the web to see what your print job will look like before you send it to the printer.

  1. Select File > Print.

  2. Choose Print again in the dialog.

  3. Your browser’s print preview will appear, showing how the document will look when printed.

You don’t need to download a PDF unless you want to save it—just use the browser preview.

Tip: If your default PDF viewer is Word, cancel the Word for the web print job, open the document in Word (Edit Document > Edit in Word) and preview it from Word (File > Print).

When you've finished previewing your document, click Cancel to exit preview and return to Word for the web.
