It should be the same on the Mac version and the Windows version of Microsoft Word. If the ruler is displayed on the top and at the side of the document window, you can use it to change your margins. Hover your mouse over the the separator between the blue area and the grey/white area of the ruler (you may need to move the indent controls out of the way first -- you can move them back later). Click and drag this either direction to change the margin. Also, if you hold down the option key, you can see the lengths between the margins (i.e. the distance from the edge of the document to the margin). If you need to adjust the margins more precisely, you can use the Document formatting dialog. It's under the menu "Format" > "Document..."

What adds extra space to margins in Microsoft Word?

If you're on Microsoft Word, go up to the ruler automatically present on your document. If your ruler/slide isn't there, go under "View" and check "Ruler" on. When this is done, you may drag (I suggest a few centimeters at a time rather than inches) your margins in (for making your text longer) or out (for making your text shorter) using the blue arrows at the top of the screen. If you can't figure this out through text alone, you can google screenshots of "ruler margins" on word. It should show you what the ruler is. Hope this helped!
