Im using Word 2002 and suddenly there appears a pale grey L shaped mark in
each of the corners of a document where the margins start - how do I get rid
of them please ?
 
Christine,
This turns up from time to time, don't ask me how but it does here's what
you can do about it.

This is usually the result of installing East Asian language support.
Start - All Programs - Microsoft Office Tools - Microsoft Office
Language Settings - delete all East Asian languages.

Also check in Windows XP, Start - Control Panel - Regional and Language
Options -Languages - uncheck Install files for East Asian languages.

.
first, you go to microsoft word
second, you go to format
third go to frames
then you will go to a box that gives you a few options
then you just chang the settings to "no frames"
 
These "crop marks" are usually the result of an East Asian language enabled
in your Word application.

Go to Start>All Programs>Microsoft Office>Microsoft Office Tools>Microsoft
Office (Your version) Language settings and disable any enabled East Asian
languages.
 
See "Margin marks or crop marks appear on each corner of the page when you
open a document in Word 2002 or in Word 2003"
