Margin issues in Mentur

What we found

The right margin in this section needs an adjustment. Margins are the blank space between the content and each edge of the page. Word can store different measurements in separate sections of one file, so one page may look correct while another does not. Confirm special binding requirements with the institution.

How to fix it

1. 1In the report, open the observation titled “Right margin is incorrect” and use its location or highlighted evidence to find the affected content.
2. 2Set the right margin to 1 inch. In Word, choose Layout > Margins > Custom Margins > Right: 1 inch. If this is a thesis or dissertation intended for binding, first confirm whether your institution requires a different value.
3. 3Check another paragraph or page that uses the same style. If the change came from a Word style, confirm that it did not alter valid exceptions elsewhere in the paper.

APA criterion

APA Publication Manual, 7th ed., Section 2.22: use 1-inch margins on all sides; bound theses and dissertations may follow different institutional requirements.
