Word cutting off headers

Word is cutting off my header horizontally. It's only happening for me on the desktop version. If I send it to a coworker or open in the web browser version it doesn't have the same issue. It seems to start on pages 3 and up. I am applying a template that I am sure works fine and has been tested by a coworker. If I send them the file they are able to see everything. This issue started yesterday. I ran a quick repair on Office 365 Suite and the issue is still occurring. When I save it to a PDF the headers also cut off in the PDF version. Is there anything else I can do besides reinstalling?

  1. The first header is correct.

  1. Second header removed line and cut off text. Seems to happen more when the header is longer.

    Hi Charles, I tried adding the spaces. It didn't seem to help unless I am not doing it correctly.

    Make sure your Office is up-to-date. My version is 2109.

    This is a known issue for some versions and has been reported to have been fixed.

    A workaround is to add spaces after the StyleRef Field in the header.
