A ruler displays the position of the margins.
                 To set new margins using ruler bars:

                 Open the document in ‘Print Layout View’ by clicking on the Ruler bars. The ‘Left’ and ‘Right’ margins are
                 shown by the left and right markers (shaded part) on the horizontal ruler. The Top and Bottom margins are
                 shown by the top and bottom markers (shaded part) on the vertical ruler.

                 Step 1:  To change the margin, place the mouse pointer on the respective margin of the boundary on the
                         horizontal ruler bar. (The mouse pointer changes to a double-headed arrow (2) and the screen tip
                         identifies the margin.)

                 Step 2:  Drag the margin marker to the desired length.
                 To set Margins using ‘Page Style: Default’ dialog box:

                 Step 1:  Select the ‘Page’ option from the ‘Format’ menu.
                 Step 2:  Click on the ‘Page’ tab.

                 In the ‘Margins’ section, there are four options—Left, Right, Top and Bottom. Set the desired measurement
                 for the margins in the corresponding boxes and click on the ‘OK’ button.
