How to align page to left side instead of centre

You can certainly eliminate your left margin temporarily in Word, if you haven't tried that. On the Page Layout tab, select Margins, and then Custom margins at the bottom of the list. Set your left margin to, perhaps, 0.1, or as you like.

Best,

Thanks Ulodesk.

That does help but essentially the document pane does not move at all. The blue gap at the left is still there. I guess this is the problem with 16:9 widescreens. Great for movies, but too wide for working with a document (I find it irritating to read text extending from the left all the way to the right), yet too narrow for working with 2 snapped side by side.

A workaround I found was to use Winsplit - http://winsplit-revolution.com/ - to snap the window to 75% of the horizontal screen estate. So it looks like this:

Cheers,
Jay
