Page Layout

[Gordon Biggar]

A business associate recently sent me a Word file (I am using Office 2000).
When I opened the document, it only took up about half of the screen. There
is a ruler bar across the top, which shows the 6.5 inches of typed space.
However, the document is so small that I cannot even read it in order to
edit it. Moreover, now when I open Word I obtain the same, small condensed
format. Evidently, my Normal template has changed?

How do I correct this, and how do I expand the sent document to a size that
is workable?

Thanks in advance for all assistance.

Check that the Zoom is not set at 50% or less. It might be on the View menu
in 2000. Sorry can't remember if there is a toolbar which shows this, but I
think there is, towards the right hand side of the standard toolbar.

The page view under Zoom was set to Whole Page, as opposed to 100%.

I'm convinced that some folks simply do not become any brighter as they
age....

Many thanks for your prompt response, and my regrets for my display of
ignorance.
