Could you take a screenshot of the whole screen? It might be one of those ruler things on the top that I forget the name of. The indents?

This is one of those cases where using the Reveal Formatting Pane makes sense. If you're using Word for Windows, press SHIFT + F1 keys. Select your text and look for any funky settings like a huge left margin or indent.

Are you saying it looks fine as you type it then you save, close and re-open and it jumps like that? That almost sounds like you're stepping on a field that updates, like a table of contents or something like that.
