Why are the rulers in Word 2003 calibrated to 1/6 inch (1 pica) instead of
full inches? More to the point, how can I fix it? The default unit is
*already* set to inches.

Specifically, it's YOUR rulers that are set to picas. Mine are set to
millimetres. Go to Tools Options : General tab if you want to change the
setting.

This will be the character unit bug - see
