Karen, if you must spread apart your text, do it instead with
Format--Font,
Character spacing tab, Spacing setting. That way, you can get rid of it
any
time you want without placing or deleting all those characters.

But I don't recommend it either.

She wanted space between the Words, not between all the letters. But:
Your suggestion lead me to a neater solution: Finish the document, use
Edit - Search to search for all spaces. Just press the space-bar in
the "Search for"-box, put a checkmark in the box "Select all elements
in:" and click Search for all. Then you can apply character spacing
from Format - Font - Character spacing. Set it to the same number of
points as your font size. To reset it: Select all text (Ctrl + A),
apply a different spacing and then normal spacing.
