Default Envelope Line Spacing

When typing an address at the top of a letter and I highlight it and go to
the Mailings Tab to make an envelope, it double-spaces the envelope. The
address is not double-spaced in the letter. How do I get the address to be
single-spaced on the envelope. I am using Word 2007.

Check the Envelope Address style which is probably set with Paragraph Space
below.

I am having the same problem. My paragraph spacing is set at single. Did
you correct your problem?

Default Envelope Line Spacing

The factory settings for the normal style and the defaults are line spacing
of 1.15 ( not single) and spacing after the paragraph of 10 points. Any
style based on normal or no style (default) will, until changed, have these
settings.

To get to normal.dot? (x or m)€“ Click the Office button Open Trusted
templates, and double click the file name. Open the styles pane and modify
the paragraph settings for the normal style.

To adjust the default settings€“ While still in the styles pane, click
manage styles button set defaults tab. Modify the paragraph settings to
your choices in this dialog. Save normal.dot? and close.

Can anyone tell me if you can have both Normal dotx and normal.dotm at the
same time (I only have one) and whether you need to change both files (or are
they linked some how)?

The Word team's blog on this subject says they changed the spacing to
improve the readability of documents.

regards,
PamC

The normal template for Word 2007 is normal.dotm

Default Envelope Line Spacing

I have tried that but still I am getting double spacing on envelope addresses
from saved Word documents. If I create a new document the problem seems to
disappear.
This problem has only started occuring in the last couple of weeks.
Any ideas?

Default Envelope Line Spacing

But the default (Normal.dotm) Envelope Address style in Word 2007 is
explicitly defined as having Single spacing and 0 Space Before/After. This
issue more often arises from a legacy template where Normal has been
modified to have greater than Single spacing and Envelope Address has not
been modified to have different line spacing from Normal.

Thanks. Then I guess it is templates (dot's) other than normal and all
documents (doc's) that can be either -x or -t depending on whether they
contain macros. Either my memory faded, or the books I read didn't that
clear.
