Word 2007 - How do I customise margin settings on ribbon?

J

Jelly

Word 2007 comes with a useful group of margin settings on a button on the
ribbon, which you can quickly select. However, they are not quite what I want
and I cannot find a way to adjust these built in settings. (I have
successfully changed the default margins for all new documents in the Normal
template, but I want to have quick access to several of my own frequently
used custom margin settings.)
Any ideas how to do this?
All help gratefully received

Have you tried pointing and dragging the blue to white margin boundary on
the horizontal and vertical rulers?

Alternatively, you can double-click any of the rulers to open the page
setup dialog.

The obvious way to deal with this is to create document templates for your
different sized documents.

Thanks for both these suggestions, but:
1. I don't want to have to adjust the margins manually each time, that is
the point of the quick click settings on the ribbon.
2. I need to change the margins for different sections within the document,
so I don't think specific document templates will quite do the trick.
