Pages 08 - Anyway to get ruler on side?

[powerbook911]

Hi.

In pages 08, clicking "show rulers," is putting a ruler on the top of the document for me.

However, no ruler is appearing to the left side of the document.

Actually, to be more specific, in word processing documents, no ruler appears on the left. In layout documents, the ruler is on the left.

Is there anyway to get the ruler on the left in word processing documents too?

Thanks for the help!

Is there any way to keep the "show Page Thumbnails" on by default?

I like having a margin from the desktop to where the paper starts. Like Microsoft Office.
