Setting Display Options

Word uses unique characters and formatting to display specialized document elements, such as bookmarks, crop marks, text boundaries and wrapping, and background colors and images. You can set options on the Advanced pane in Word Options to show or hide these elements when you work on a document. In addition, you can also show or hide Word window elements, such as scroll bars, shortcut keys, and the vertical ruler. If you want to change the units of measurement used in a document, which affects the rulers, positioning, and sizing to name a few, you can set the options on the Advanced pane.
