I am using Word 2007 and something has happened to my default view.
Whenever
I start a new document or open Word, the document shows on screen as
8.5x9.
The top ruler shows 8.5" with the leftmost and rightmost inches grayed out
(as expected for margins). Its scale is from -1" to +7.5". The left
ruler. json formatter
shows 9". It does not have any margins showing and its scale is from 0 to
9". When in the One Page view, the page looks short and sqwatty, like
it's
missing a couple of inches in height. When I start typing, the text it
displayed at the very top of the page without any white space above it.
The
bottom and left margins are white and do not contain any text. They look
normal. It's like the top of the page has been cut off.

If I switch to 2 page view it looks normal, I can see the whole page, the
margin rulers, everything.

Word is set to Print Layout, One Page. Page size Letter, the margins,
Orientation, Size and Columns are all set properly.

I've tried deleting the normal.dotm but that did not help.

The printer is setup properly with the correct page size, etc.

Opening existing documents do not have this problem, only newly created
documents.

Anybody got any clues on what can be done to fix this view?

This is pretty cool. The double-click works!
