Default Word 2007 Page View

So, you're saying that if you zoom to 80% and then click the One Page icon
in the View tab (might need to nudge the zoom tool to get back to 80%) you
still don't see just one page at 80%?

When I zoom to 80%, it indeed does show two pages. But, if I then click the
One Page tool in the View tab, that takes care of the problem (actually,
here it changes the zoom to 73%, but I'm then able to click the + on the
zoom tool (in the status bar) and then see 80% and just a single page.

I am working in the Print Layout view in Word 2007 on both a desktop and a
laptop. The desktop screen is square in shape, but laptop has a screen
that
is wider than it is high. I prefer to view my documents on page at a time
and at 80%. This is possible on the square, desktop monitor, but when I
use
the laptop Word 2007 insists on showing two pages at once. The only way
that
I can view just one page is if I zoom to 100%.

I have tried to change the options for €śone page€ť or €śtwo pages€ť under the
view tab, but I can not get one page at 80%. I dont understand why this
basic control of a page view has been taken away in Word 2007 because I
could
do it in Word 2000. Clearly Word sees that I have a wide screen and
therefore tries to fill it.

Can anyone please tell me how to stop Word 2007 from showing two pages at
certain zoom values? This only happens on a wide screen monitor.

Thank you.
