That's the way it always is (assuming you mean that the *right* edge of the
paper is at 7¼"). Was it ever different on your machine?

This is a difficult problem to articulate. All of the sudden the scale at
the top of all Word docs in Print view is different. The left margin is
at
"0", with a number one an inch to the left and the right edge of the paper
at
about minus 1 1/4 . The right margin is at the number six and the left
end
of the paper is at about 7 1/4. All new and old docs are this way. What
happened and how do I fix it, please.
