another question missy: I have a document, a 52 page publications with huge space above and below each page which is driving me nuts, yet in pasteboard prefs Ihave that amount set to 0"
WTF?

did you put a slug area in there?
- mayo0
or bleeds even?

rand: you probably have a large object on the pasteboard that's causing the area outside the live page to increase in size.
check in the links palette for items located on PB, go to the link and see if it's way off the page... or simply too large. delete it, go to another page, and see if that solves your problem.

use the transform palette.
either than that... i think i heard of a plug-in that you can get to align to the pasteboard.
i'd stick to the good ole x/y coordinates.

just drop a guide dead center and snap to it.
better yet, drop a guide dead center on your master page(s) and call it a day.
better yet again, zoom into your ruler at center, double click on the rule and instant exact guide.
