How can I change the top and side rulers from the metric to the US system?
I've changed the basic measure unit to the US system, but the top and side
bar have remained in the metric system. When I change margins and such, they
show up in inches, but the bars still won't. What can I do?

It was already on Inches. Everything shows up in inches EXCEPT for the
horizontal and vertical rulers. The problem has still not been fixed.
