I have two people who share documents but prefer to view them in 2 different sizes. One at 75% and the other at 100%. When one creates a document, and the other opens it, it opens in the other person's zoom. Is there any way to force Word to open up a document at a specific zoom setting?

Thanks in Advance

he standard answer is see:
http://word.mvps.org/faqs/general/SaveViewAndZoom.htm

I have read but not tested that article. Long ago I opted for an AutoOpen()
macro:

Sub AutoOpen()

ActiveWindow.View.Type = wdPrintView
ActiveWindow.View.Zoom.Percentage = 105

End Sub

You can delete the View.Type line if you like and use only the zoom
percentage line. Change 105 to whatever you like.
 
Its possible you might need to Record a Macro, to open a specific way. Check
the following article for more info:

Also, if you want all documents to open a specific Zoom rate, go to View >
Zoom > (on the Zoom dialogue, choose the "Zoom to", size you want.
