Well, that's an entirely different thing; that's caused by having "markup"
(tracked changes or comments) in the document. Word expands the margins to
accommodate the balloons. But such a document still looks the normal shape
in Print Preview; it's just that the text is "shrunk" into the top left
corner.

I am having the same (?) problem. I noticed that when I first open the
document the page's print-layout view displayed on the monitor looks fine
then all-of-a-sudden the "paper" is stretched to be wider than the ruler
on
the display. When I print or preview the page, the paper looks odd, too
wide
and short - I guess it's similar enough to look like landscape - and the
text
seems "shrunk" on the page. I too have checked margins, page layout,
formats
and styles and I don't see anything different or "odd" that would cause
this.
I use Word 2003.
