More precise steps to reproduce and perhaps a test document?
Also a screen shot with annotation would be helpful as well...

Q: is this on OS X builds only?  

Windows and Linux builds simply show reasonable margins between the document's
"page" and window (or widget--e.g. ruler, scroll bars) edges. If it is simply
that margin, it offset is providing useful visual composition queues for page
layout. 

Q: does the "Optimal View" zoom level, rather than "Page Width" zoon level,
provide acceptable full width representation and make "better" use of space?
