Default How do I enlarge the page in word so I can see what I am writing?

I don't know how this happened. I can't see what I am writing in word because
the page is too small. It is 6X8 cm according to the ruler at the top of the
page. It doesn't matter if I change the font size to 72 because I still can't
see it unless I zoom it in preview. But I would like to see it as I work.
Please help. very frustrated.

WORD 2007

See if this helps:-

View / Zoom group / set to 100% or click on Zoom button and change as
required.

If my comments have helped please hit Yes.

Thanks.
