All dimentions in Word in Points not inches_How to change back

[Mark]

Suddenly all dimensions (ruler, margins, paper & envelope size) are in
points. How do I change back to inches?

 

[Lene Fredborg]

Make sure that Tools > Options > General tab > Measurement units is set to
â€Inchesâ€. In case of Word 2007, you will find the setting here: Office button

Word Options > Advanced > View group.

If the above does not solve the problem, see:

Tools | Options | General: Measurement units. If this proves not to be the
problem, see http://www.gmayor.com/Character_Units.htm

That's the second time in a few days this has been asked ("pixels" the
first time). That suggests there's some keyboard shortcut that it's
easy to hit accidentally that's making it happen?

I doubt it. It's just that topics in general seem to come in waves.
