Dotted line appears on new document

I converted a few word documents to PDF (by using Docudesk). Now I have a
problem when I open my word documents and when I want to create a new
document. A dotted line appears that seems to mark the margin on the page.
Also, a dotted line is around text boxes and if the document contains a
picture is is gone. If I choose to view the documet in full screen mode I do
not have the problem. Can anyone help me out?

I think you will find that the documents are opening in Normal View. Select
View/Print layout.

Hope this helps,

Hi, thanks, but in fact it opens in print layout. I do not have this problem
in full screen layout (and I don't want this in any view...I prefer to write
in print layout).Tx.

One possibility is that text boundaries are displayed. Assuming that this is
Word 2007, you can turn that option off in Office button | Word Options,
Advanced category (under "Show document content," clear the "Show text
boundaries" option).
