Change the view from Final Showing Markup to Final, or, in the Print dialog,
make sure you have selected "Document" rather than "Document showing
markup."

I do have comments and I think that is the problem. I unchecked the
"Balloons" option on the Trach changes tap under Options and the problem
was
fixed.

Is there another way to keep comments without changing the paper size on
print view?

Thanks for your response,
Andreas

I am using word 2002 and I have the page margins set to 1" for top,
bottom
and right margins and 1.25" for the left margin. The paper size is set
to
"Letter" (8.5" x 11").

However, in the print layout view, the page shows larger with extra
space
to
the right. Therefore the text is not positioned evenly within the page
based
on my settings above.
