Word's Reviewing features are designed for editing a document, so if you
are circulating it for review by others, the shrunken margins should be
understood and not a problem. That's just how the feature works--it has
to allow room for the balloons, and it does it on every page.

In Tools | Options | Track Changes, uncheck the option to show changes
and comments in balloons. You can't control where the balloons show up,
but you can turn them off entirely.

Since graphic layout is a concern, are you using Comment boxes for
something other than editing a document in progress? then it sounds like
maybe you should be using a frame or text box to create a fancy
pull-quote like you see in newspapers and magazines.

Im using word 2003 and i`ve inserted some comment boxes in our document. But
because of this, the whole documents margins are now screwed up even tho the
settings are fine. If i remove the comment boxes, everything goes back to
normal and looks fine.

The only way to fix it IMO, would be to move the comment boxes more to the
middle of the page and not have it stay at the complete right or left like it
is now.

Is there any way i can move the comment box more to the middle or am i stuck?
