Default New Monitor: Print Preview Screen On Left Side of Screen, Not Centered

Hello everyone. I’m running Microsoft Office Home & Student 2010 on Windows 8.1 Preview.

Yesterday, I had to purchase a new desktop PC monitor. It’s a Samsung S22C300H if that helps.

The resolution is higher than my previous monitor. As a result, when I open Microsoft Word and have it display in Print Layout mode, the page has shifted from the center of the screen to the far left.

(The resolution on the new monitor is 1920 x 1080.)

Honestly, the change has literally made me nauseous! I’ve been used to the page being in the center of the screen for the past 20 years!

I’ve lowered the resolution, which did center the page in Word, but the resolution is nowhere near as sharp as the high resolution mode.

Is there a way to get the Print Layout page in Word to be centered on the screen in this high resolution? If so, what is the procedure? Thank you! Jd

I figured out a workaround to this. I just have to set the zoom level to 120% and that will center the screen. The text is a bit bigger than I'd like it to be, but I can live with that.

My only question now is: How do I configure Word so that 120% is the default setting, so that older Word documents open up in the 120% window?
