Default Unwanted margin boundaries !

Stefan,

THANK YOU for that link.

I followed what it said to do - registry editing is NOT my forte, BUT, when
I changed the attribute for one of the language codes, and restarted word,
the problem was gone !!

This was all I could do as nothing else would work - the language setting
tool thingy fails for me.

Thanx again for the assistance, I do appreciate it !

I have the same problem. It started when I opened a document from

the a
co-worker that had these marks. Now all my documents have them. I

tried the
solution at "Margin marks or crop marks appear on each corner of the

page
when you open a document in Word 2002 or in Word 2003" it did not

work.
(There were no Asian fonts listed, anyway.) I restarted the

computer and it
still did not work.

More help please

Hi there,

JUST had a problem occur today that is driving me MAD.

In MS Word now I get what I call margin boundary markers - not

sure of the
correct term. In all cases its when I am in print layout mode.

What it is looks like 2 sides of a square - and there is one at

each corner
of the text area. Each has a different orientation and points

into the area.
In many ways they are like the dotted "things" you see when you

can click
on/off boundaries - where the lines will join them up.

The FRUSTRATING things a
1) I don't know how / why they are there today and not

yesterday.
2) How I turn them OFF.

Can anyone help me please ??
