Hi all :3

I was working and multi-tasking and apparently I pressed some buttons that I shouldn't have!

I use word on daily basis but now the issue is:

when I create a new word doc. or open one, it looks like a big infinite page with no borders/edges on any side, the only way for me to bring the default page border/edges is that I have to go to View tab and press/check the gridlines option and uncheck it back (but it only applies to the current doc.) and doing that to every single doc. that I create or open is really annoying and time consuming :(

pls help me if you know ❤

    Hi omran,

    Please check if you have switched the layout for the Word documents.

    Go to View tab, and make sure the Print Layout is selected.

    Then reopen your word docs, see if the page is normal now.

    Regards,

    Alex Chen

    Try changing from web view to print view.
