Page Margins

In Microsoft word page margin is the space between text and the edge of your document. By default, a new document margins are set to normal it would be one-inch space between the text and each edge. Margins also called as Text Boundaries.


To view the margin in word go to file => options => advanced => show document content (click check box of show text boundaries).


To Change Page margins go to page layout => margins (and we can change preset page margins). 


We can also change custom margins in the page layout settings at the bottom click the custom margins in the page setup change to your own values.


At the bottom you have these options to apply in different ways.
  • Click Whole document if you'd like the same margins used throughout the document.
  • Click This point forward if you'd like the new margins to apply to the pages of the document beyond the cursor's current location.
  • Click Selected sections after selecting a block of text in the document in order to apply the new margins only to the text you selected.
After that click OK to change the custom margin.
