I have a user that would like her default scaling size to be Letter as opposed to No Scaling. I have had no luck trying to figure this out by searching the web.

I am using Microsoft Office Professional Edition 2003. The desired setting is in MS Word, but I assume the setting will travel between all office suite products.

Basically, when the user goes to File>Print the print dialog window comes up. Down in the lower right hand corner in the Zoom section, there is a drop-down list that is labeled Scale to paper size: The default setting is No Scaling. However, I would like to change the default to Letter.

Anyone know how to do this?

Thank you much...

If you go to page setup, you can select Letter and change this as your default on the button below. Try this, ignoring the no scaling on the print window and see if the paper is the size that you want it to be. I think Letter is about 8.5" by 11" whereas A4 is a bit bigger by height. In australia A4 is generally the standard size for letters.
