How do change margins when the margins default incorrectly?
When a new document is selected, the margins default to areas beyond the
typing line. The left margin is set a negative 1 and the right margin is beyond the typing line. |

How do change margins when the margins default incorrectly?
This sounds more like a problem with indentation than with margins.
Create a new, blank document. Display the Modify Style dialog box for the Normal style (which is the style applied to the empty paragraph in new blank documents by default). Click the Format button, and then click Paragraph. Under "Indentation," make sure that "Left" and "Right" are both zero and that "Special" is set to "(none)." Click OK. Before clicking OK to close the Modify Style dialog box, select the "Add to template" option or "New documents based on this template" if you are using Word 2007. If/when you are prompted to save the Normal template, choose to do so. To display the Modify Style dialog box: - Word 2003: Click Format | Styles and Formatting. In the Styles and Formatting pane, right-click Normal and choose Modify from the context menu. - Word 2007: Press Ctrl+Alt+Shift+S. In the Styles pane, right-click Normal and choose Modify from the context menu. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "sctcjr" wrote in message news When a new document is selected, the margins default to areas beyond the typing line.
