Pages on MS Word and Publisher etc are not centered, why not?

[Gabi]

i work with word and publisher a lot. however, the pages are impossible to
center. i have tried everything to center the page. however, the right side
is always about .6 inch and the left side is .1 inch, top is .35 inch and
bottom is .5 inch.
this is extremely annoying especially when i have to print brochure designs
on brochure paper which makes it always lopsided.
is there anything that can be done about this problem? i am more than happy
to send you attachments of what it looks like.
thanks
Gabi

Are you trying to use all of the page or are you taking your printer margins
into account?

Hi JoAnn,
thanks for your reply. I have done both. in both cases it's lopsided. any
suggestions?

I'll take a look, brochures are tricky to setup, especially if you are trying to
center elements on each panel.
