Ctrl+2 will double-space selected text. If you want all text in all new
documents to be double-spaced, you need to modify a style in Normal.dot. I
do NOT advise modifying the Normal style, on which most others are based.
Instead, modify Body Text and apply it to the default empty paragraph in
Normal.dot. See
