Default Justified right indent not matching setting

As seanbaski points out, the Right Indent marker is by default at the margin
on the horizontal ruler. The point was that there was no indent but Word was
acting as if there were.

Why are you setting a right indent? You do not need a right indent
unless you want the text to end somewhere to the left of the margin.



You set the right indent on a justified document (usually the margin
unless changed).


No you don't. An indent is, by definition, an offset from the margin.
