How to change Pages margins to one inch?

I have an assignment for school and I have to write and essay with 1 inch margins. I changed all the margins (left, right,before, after) to one inch but the 1 inch seems WAY to big. How do I get it to be one inch like in Microsoft Word?? Please answer ASAP!

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

One way that an Pages inch margin can become larger than a Microsoft inch margin is to have View > Show Comments turned on. Another way is if you have a Layout margin on top of a Document margin.

So, look in the View menu and in the Layout Inspector, Layout tab.
