Change the standard margins in Word to save paper.
Change the standard format settings for word documents so that the margins
are narrower. This would result in users being able to fit more information on a page and thereby use less paper. I already reduce my left and right margins from the standard 1.25 inches to just 1 inch each and I believe the documents are just as easy to read. Additionally, in many situations, it is more convenient to have just one page so you do not have to staple pages together or turn the page. If these reduced margins were the standards, individuals would not need to make the change and many would most likely not even notice the difference. I am unable to estimate the amount of paper this may save, but I would venture that the difference could make a huge impact. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

Change the standard margins in Word to save paper.
The default margins in Word 2007 are 1" left and right. Users of previous
versions, however, can easily modify Normal.dot to change the default margins; see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...alTemplate.htm -- Suzanne S.
