I thought if I changed the paper size things like pictures might line up
better, but that doesn't seem to be the case. any suggestions?

The Reading Layout really isn't intended to be WYSIWYG, or handle
"floating" object well; it's designed for reading a lot of text. I
discussed this with MS at some length during the Word 2003 beta, and was
told that, in this case, I'd be better off using the Print Layout view with
a zoom factor and the space at the top and bottom of the page suppressed.
