Ruler to Right of page

[Cazzy123]

On Word 2007 is it possible to have a ruler display on the right and bottom
of my page, not just to the top and left?

Thanks

I think you may need to enable a right-to-left language before you can do
this (this was the case in earlier versions, but I'm not certain in 2007),
but there are two checkboxes under Office Button > Word Options > Advanced
tab > Display section: "Left scroll bar", and "Show right ruler in Print
Layout view". If you check one of them, the other will check automatically
(that is, both or neither are enabled - fairly obviously, really).

AFAIK there is no way to have the horizontal ruler at the bottom (though
there are occasions where I could do with it).

Yes... you need to enable a right-to-left language, such as Hebrew (Israel).
If Word is open, you'll need to close it and re-open before you see the
additional options.
