In English versions of Word, the default margins are 1.25" left
and right, 1" top and bottom, and 0.5" header and footer. You
can set these margins in File | Page Setup, and then press the
Default button.

When you go into page setup in Word there is a "Default" button which I
mistook for a "Reset to Defualt". Now every time I open a new document the
margins are jacked up. How do I reset the page setup back to the original
settings?

Thanks
