Mac Forum / Applications / Word / January 2008Enter/Return Paragraph Spacing
I apologize in advance because I think someone already raised this recently -- but I wasn't really paying attention. So at the risk of repetition... In Word 2004 a carriage return at the end of a paragraph took me down one line. It still does, but the spacing is such that it looks like two lines -- in other words a new paragraph separatd by a space takes only a single Return, not two. This may be convenient for some, but I would prefer to go down two lines by hitting Return twice -- and actually getting two lines. What do I have to do to get what I want? TIA  Signature"There's nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and open a vein." -- Red Smith Huh. To change in just this document, select all, go to Format | Paragraph. Look down to the find the Spacing: After field, and change 10 to 0. To change this in all documents created from now on, change the Normal style. First, select Format | Style. Normal should be selected. Click on Modify--make sure "add to template" is CHECKED. You'll see a Format menu in the bottom of the dialog--select Paragraph from it, and change the Spacing: After setting from 10 to 0. > I apologize in advance because I think someone already raised this > recently -- but I wasn't really paying attention.

Your pre-emption made me delete the longer one. :) > Thanks -- Just what I wanted. > Glad to help. Guess I'll go write an article on it. |
