To be typewriter-friendly, a Word document must use Exact line spacing of 12
pts (single spacing = 6 lpi) or 24 pts (double = 3 lpi). Anything you do
other than that should be in half-line (6-pt) increments.

Thank you Suzanne, I had already looked at this.

This form was originally built using Wordstar, and my boss has become
quite adept at using Wordstar to do ANYTHING he wants. Since we've
transferred to Word, it's fallen to me to be able to accomplish the
kinds of things he's used to doing. Part of the problem is that this
is a form we will send to the customer, and it needs to be 'typewriter
ready', meaning when the load it into a typewriter and line up the
first line, the rest fall in line.

Maybe this is not possible in Word, I know it's possible in Wordstar,
I've seen it. If more explaination is necessary, please let me know.

Thanks
John
