Ok, this is going to sound a little odd:

When I open a document that I previously created on my computer (same version of everything), the page width jumps from the usual 6.5/7" to 10.5", screwing up anything I've written. If I open a new file to copy/paste everything, it opens with the usual 6.5" margins, and saves perfectly 'normal'.

I didn't change a single setting of anything but this just started happening the other day.

Help? -lol

Is this a document with comments and/or Track Changes? Word could be
reserving space for comment and revision balloons.

I thought of that, but Word only does that when there's at least one marginal
balloon.

The document may be damaged. I guess the original poster has already
confirmed that, since copying into a new file fixed the problem.
