I am trying to set margins, gutters etc in metric, but all word shows is
imperial measurement, that is inches etc. How do I change this?
Many thanks

In Word 2003 or earlier, go to Tools > Options > General and set the Measurement
Units dropdown to either Centimeters or Millimeters.

In Word 2007, go to Office button > Word Options > Advanced > Display and set
the same dropdown.
