Default Margins in Page Set up

My problem is that I am formatting large docs for other people (who have even
less experience of word than I do! and that's saying something). As a quick
fix to get stuff like tables to fit on one page I have been changing the
margins from Word default to whatever will fit and be printable. This is ok
but I would prefer the page sizes to be consistent throughout the doc and was
just wondering if anyone out there had a standard size.

From your reply it sounds as though there is no std size. Should have
guessed really, everyone is doing something different.

Thanks anyway

I don't know if this is just a preference thing, but the default margins in
Word seem too generous. Does anyone out there have any suggestions for this?

What margins are you getting? Modern printed work requires generous
margins (and they look better). Maybe you're used to dense pages? If so,
and you haven't got some problem, it's a matter of becoming used to it.

Tell us what you're getting.
