Thumbs up Answer: How do I delete blank lines in Word?

Deleting Blank Lines in Word

Sure, I can help you with that! Deleting blank lines in Word is a quick and easy process. Here's how you can do it:
  1. First, open the Word document that you want to edit.
  2. Next, click on the "Home" tab in the ribbon at the top of the screen.
  3. Look for the "Paragraph" section in the ribbon, and click on the small arrow in the bottom right corner of that section. This will open the "Paragraph" dialog box.
  4. In the "Paragraph" dialog box, look for the "Spacing" section. Under "Spacing," you'll see a setting called "Before" and "After." If you see a number in the "After" box, that means there is a blank line after each paragraph.
  5. To delete the blank lines, simply change the number in the "After" box to "0." This will remove the blank lines from your document.
  6. Once you've made the change, click the "OK" button to close the "Paragraph" dialog box.

That's it! Your blank lines should now be removed from your Word document. If you have multiple blank lines in your document, you may need to repeat these steps for each one.
