Default Why isn't the page centered on the screen in Word?


I'm using MS Office 2010 on Windows 7 Professional 64 bit

When I'm editing a page in Word, how can I get the page to be in the center of the computer screen. It is always shifted to the left.

You apparently have Word's zoom set to display two pages - change it back to one page.

Word 2016 and 2013 are a bit better at preserving the singe-page view regardless of zoom. However, if you want to make absolutely certain, you will have to run a macro that forces a particular view and zoom. See for example http://www.gmayor.com/ZoomandView.htm.
