I am working in the Print Layout view in Word 2007 on both a desktop and a
laptop. The desktop screen is square in shape, but laptop has a screen that
is wider than it is high. I prefer to view my documents on page at a time
and at 80%. This is possible on the square, desktop monitor, but when I use
the laptop Word 2007 insists on showing two pages at once. The only way that
I can view just one page is if I zoom to 100%.

I have tried to change the options for “one page” or “two pages” under the
view tab, but I can not get one page at 80%. I don’t understand why this
basic control of a page view has been taken away in Word 2007 because I could
do it in Word 2000. Clearly Word sees that I have a wide screen and
therefore tries to fill it.

Can anyone please tell me how to stop Word 2007 from showing two pages at
certain zoom values? This only happens on a wide screen monitor.

Thank you.
