Then check the page sizes section by section and very likely you'll
solve the problem. Simplest way: Go to Page Setup on the section that
has the page sizes you want and then click on the drop down that says
"Apply to...whole document."

Are all of your pages in the same section?

Subject: Page size in Word
I have a document in Word that I originally created in OpenOffice Writer
and saved as .doc. A couple of the pages are larger than normal in terms
of physical size on the display. One is the title page. I believe this
is due to the different page styles I used in OO Writer. I have tried
using File > Page Setup > Paper size and applying a size to the entire
document, but it doesn't seem to do anything. Does anyone know how I can
get all my pages to be of one size in Word? Sorry if this is a
self-evident question.
