Remarks

The PageLayout object has a RulerSettings object which manages ruler settings.  IRulerSettings only has one property, SmallestDivision.  This property controls the size of the smallest ruler division in page units.  For example, if the page size is 8.5 by 11 inches, and the SmallestDivision is set to 2, the rulers, seen in layout view, will read off every 2 inches; if the property is set to .1, the rulers will read of every 1/10 of an inch.
