Default Blank page layout..

I must have inadvertently clicked on something and I cannot restore this -
Whenever word was opened and a new blank page was opened, the white new page
would be in the middle of the screen with a good chunk of grey at either
side. All my saved documents are like this, but now I've opened up Word to
create another document and the white new page where you type, is massive
with hardly any grey at either side (hope this makes sense). The margins
along the top are exactly the same but I prefer it how it used to be. Can
anyone let me know how to re-set it please?

It is ok! I messed about and found in the View tab, the Zoom function was
set at something like 144%. I have reset it to 100% and all is well again.

Okay, I have a similar problem but different lol.

create another document and the white new page where you type, has jumped over to the left. I cannot see how to reset it back so the new blank page is square in the middle. The view tab, zoom is set at 100% so its not hat. Can anyone advise please?


Thanks

Perhaps you're displaying Two Pages?

No, only displaying one page. The LH rules used to be over to the right a
bit so the blank page was bang in the middle. Now the page is hard over to
the left with the LH rulers hard at the left with no grey shadings on the
ruler. The RH ruler has a bit of grey shading at towards the end.
The entire ruler used to be in the middle of the page.

How can this be restored?

Ordinarily there is no (vertical) ruler on the right, so I'm assuming you're
talking about the horizontal ruler? Could it be that you're just in Normal
view instead of Print Layout?
