Hi,

I have problems with my page set up... paper is set for A4 but in the
document is appears larger and when I adjust margin the paper changes in size
in the document - not the text margins.

Please, advise how to make a standard page set up .. I have pressed
"default" in page set up - still problems.

If the document "appears larger," it could be because you have "white space"
hidden (see http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/WhiteSpace.htm) or the
document contains markup (tracked changes or comments) and Word is allowing
extra margin space for the "balloons." Or it could just be that you have the
Zoom set too high.

Hi Suzanne,

first of all thanks for your great advice and help in this matter and my
other posted problem.

My problem is not "White space" but the fact that my page is set up for A4
(that means a width of 21 cm.) My ruler shows 21 cm but does not cover the
width of the paper shown - the paper seems to be 3 cm lager. And I have been
changing the
margins for the paper and strange things happen. I have tried to press
Default but that does not give a "standard" page.
What can I do ?- I can make you a "Print Screen" picture for you if that is
better ?

Note that pressing "Default" sets rather than restores defaults. This is a
common misunderstanding. But in your case I would guess that the document
contains markup. Display the Reviewing toolbar if it is not already
displayed, and change the view to Final. Does this make a difference? If so,
see http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/trac...ngesWorks.html
