Default Page Layout in Word 2002

Hi there,

I have a document that was imported from an infobase. Even though I have
changed the paper size to letter, 8 1/2 X 11 and changed margins to 1.0
inches on all four sides, the text uses a 2 1/2 inch margin on the right and
on the bottom.


This shows both in print layout with the ruler at the top and when the
document prints.

So far, I have cleared all formatting. I have also tried to copy to a new
document, but the odd right and bottom margin remain with this document.

I appreciate any suggestions!

Thanks,
Patty

If the document is also reduced (smaller font size than expected), the
likelihood is that it contains "markup" (tracked changes or comments) and
Word is allowing the margin space for the "balloons."
