To force *any* document opened in Word to a certain zoom (and view), you can
use the following auto macros in normal.dot:
Sub AutoOpen()
With ActiveWindow.View
.Type = 3 ' Print Layout view (use 1 for Normal view)
.Zoom = 500 'fix the tiny cursor error
.Zoom = 100 ' specify the desired percentage
End With
End Sub
Sub AutoNew()
With ActiveWindow.View
.Type = 3 ' Print Layout view (use 1 for Normal view)
.Zoom = 500 'fix the tiny cursor error
.Zoom = 100 ' specify the desired percentage
End With
End Sub

Word documents open in the view and zoom they were saved. To force a certain view and zoom ratio for all documents, you can use auto macros. For example:
Sub AutoOpen()
ActiveWindow.View.Type = 3 'print layout view
ActiveWindow.View.Zoom.Percentage = 100
End Sub
Sub AutoNew()
ActiveWindow.View.Type = 3 'print layout view
ActiveWindow.View.Zoom.Percentage = 100
End Sub
