At least in WinWord, you must make use of auto macros to ensure that all documents display in the same view and zoom:
Code:
Sub AutoOpen()
ActiveWindow.View.Type = wdPrintView
ActiveWindow.View.Zoom.Percentage = 200
End Sub
Sub AutoNew()
ActiveWindow.View.Type = wdPrintView
ActiveWindow.View.Zoom.Percentage = 200
End Sub
Put the macros in the Normal template. For installation instructions, see
