Correction: Unless you *forgot* to clear the "Text boundaries"
option...
Too many negations in one sentence!

Stefan,
Thanks but, I checked the registry and all the numeric values are
"ExplicitOff" except for 1033 which is "On", as Jay Freedman says
they should
be.
On the way to do this I also unchecked the supplemental language
support
boxes in Control Panel/Regional and Language Options Language tab
and the
check boxes for the "foreign" languages in the Control
Panel/Regional and
Language Options Advanced tab. Then restarted. This created a
registry
change. But the marks are still there.
Then I checked the registry and found it as it should be with
"ExplicitOff"
except for 1033 which is "On".
What now?

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 ??
