Default How to make a Word doc appear in the middle of the screen

I prefer to work woth a Word doc right in the middle of the screen. At 75%
size, which I prefer, it is offset to the left. If I enlarge to 76% it goes
to the centre again. I am sure there is some default which I have altered by
mistake, but I would love to know how to get it back. I use print view as I
find it more comfortable.

Default How to make a Word doc appear in the middle of the screen

At some point in the zoom scale, depending on a number of factors, not least
of which is the window size, the view will change from one page view (in the
centre of the screen) to two page view (one page to the left). If 76% is one
page and 75% two, then use 76%. Set the zoom to two pages to give the
threshold setting for any given window size.

So there's no way to change it so that a 75% document will stay in the center?
