Thank you. Would I send it somewhere through here or to an email address

of
yours from your Web site?

I'm not sure what the answer is then. If you would like to send a

sample doc, I'll have a look.

Neither suggestion is working out in my case. I open the Styles and
Formatting window, click on Comment Text, click on Modify, and

although it
says it is single-spaced, it doesn't appear that way. Also, even if I

change
the font size, the font size remains the same. The only thing it

allows me
to
do is change the font itself. This happens when I click on "Add to

Template,"
when I change "Style based on" to (no style), and when I click on the

Format
button and change the line spacing under the Paragraph option. It

simply
ignores what I want it to do.

This suggests that you have modified the line spacing of Normal

style,
which
you are using for the body text. Because the Comment Text style is

based
on
Normal, it adopts the line spacing. This is why we suggest not modif

ying
Normal style in this way and using Body Text instead (see
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...BodyStyles.htm), but in

this
case, it will be more efficient to modify the Comment Text style to

be
single-spaced. See

My commenting bubble text seems adopts the font

style/characteristics
of
the
main text. Thus, when the main text is triple-spaced, my

commenting
text
is
the same, and my bubbles expand to out-of-control proportions. I'm

able to
change the font style and justification under "Change the way

tracked
changes
and comments look" in Help, but it won't change the line spacing.

Can
anyone
help?
