When I decide to make my right margin smaller, hoping to get more words on a
line, I can't make the words adjust to the new margins. Does anyone know how
to do this?
 
More than likely you have a paragraph mark, or manual line break, at
the end of each line of the paragraph which prevents it from wrapping
to your new margin settings.

Turn on your nonprinting characters, Ctrl + Shift + 8, or click ¶ in
the toolbar, and see if there is a character at the end of each line.
If so then take a look at this article for help on cleaning up the
