I started off with this problem of Microsoft Word complaining about “Macros in this project are disabled” whenever we tried to paste into the document. I fixed this by resetting the default document template, enabling all macros, and restarting Word. (I think just restarting Word would’ve worked.

Now I’m noticing these annoying lines at the corners of the document in Print View.
What are they? How do I hide them? I looked through the View menu and tried searching the Word Help and and Google, and I couldn’t find it (how embarrassing!). But hey, I’m willing to ask, so– do you know?

I have checked all avenues and there is only the English language enabled. This is so frustrating because I have no idea why this happened all of a sudden. Please advise if possible.
