Pleading Paper - Enveloopes
I use 1-28 ruled and numbered pleading paper (based on the legal pleading
template - Word 2007). My "proof of service" document includes mailing addresses, single spaced in the document which is typed on the pleading paper. However, when I block the mailing address and click the envelope icon to create an envelope, the address appears double-spaced! I have a document that includes a mailing list of 20 attorneys. Am I going to have to retype all of their names and addresses on a separate document in order to print out single spaced envelopes ? |

I can't replicate the problem... but see if this will solve the problem for
you. I suspect that the double spacing is coming from the Envelope Address style's Paragraph spacing settings. Modify that style so that the Paragraph Befo and After: spacing are both set to 0, and Line Spacing: is set to Single. If the text is formatted as Envelope Address in the proof of service document, do this: 1. click in the address and press Ctrl+Shift+S. 2. Verify that Envelope Address is the style shown in the Apply Styles box, and click Modify. 3. Near the bottom of the Modify Style box, tick the "New documents based on this template" option. 4. Click on the Format button (bottom left in the Modify dialog). 5, Click Paragraph. In the Indents and Spacing tab, set Spacing Befo and After: both to 0. Set Line spacing: to Single. Click OK twice. Does that fix it? -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "Jan Groshan" wrote in message ...

PS... I was ultimately able to replicate the problem, but only by first
modifying the Envelope Address style so that it had incorrect paragraph spacing. I'm guessing that that's the problem in this case, and hence and suggesting that you modify that style to see if it fixes your problem. If not, then my next guess would be that the template is damaged in some way. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "Herb Tyson [MVP]" wrote in message ...

This would be my guess as well, since by default the Envelope Address style
is formatted as Single spacing with 0 pt Space After (specified because this is different from Normal). -- Suzanne S.

you have the list configured to show style 'In Use' it will then be in the list.

OK...did that, but when I blocked the address in the document it moved it to
the envelope at the bottom of the document. I want to be able to just block the address and have it PRINT a single-spaced envelope, without creating an envelope at the end of the document.....as if I were blocking an address in a letter and printing an envelope. In fact, even the return address comes up double-spaced on the envelope unless I change the style for both address envelope AND address return. As an added annoyance, even if I block and copy the address and paste it to a blank page, it's STILL double-spaced. "Graham Mayor" wrote in message ...

Graham was suggesting you add an envelope to the document just as a way of
accessing the Envelope Address and Envelope Return styles in order to modify them. If you don't want to do that, then do it as I suggested, going through the Manage Styles dialog. Make sure that you select the button marked "All documents based on this template." Make sure you do this while you are in a new Blank Document, not your pleading document (assuming it's based on a different template), since its the styles in Normal.dotm you want to modify. FWIW, the default Envelope Address style is single-spaced, with no space after; apparently the problem comes only if you have installed Word 2007 over an older version. If you copy/paste the address to a blank page, you're probably getting Normal style on that page (which may be different from Normal in your document); you are not pasting it in Envelope Address style (see http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/styl...tChanges.html). -- Suzanne S.

Suzanne and Graham have given you two methods. But, note that the box
containing the name of the style is not just a dropdown. You can type a name there. Thus, even without jumping through other hoops, you can just type or paste the name -- Envelope Address -- into the style box, then click on Modify, which magically ungrays the moment you type the last "s" in Envelope Address. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "Jan Groshan" wrote in message ...

I didn't install Word 2007 over an older version. It was a new install.
Also, I've experienced this same issue in Word 2003 and Word 2000. It's really annoying.

If you download the envelope templates you can download from my web site
work correctly? The transfer of addresses from letter to the envelope dialog will add any manual formatting applied to the address that you transfer. For best results modify (or create) the 'Inside Address' paragraph style to match the appearance of the addresses in your document. Base it on 'no style' and apply that style in place of whatever style you are currently using. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Jan Groshan wrote: I didn't install Word 2007 over an older version.

Pleading Paper - Enveloopes
Thanks Graham, however, I don't have the problem with letters, only on
pleading-paper documents (proof of service with a list of names and addresses). "Graham Mayor" wrote in message ... If you download the envelope templates you can download from my web site work correctly? The transfer of addresses from letter to the envelope dialog will add any manual formatting applied to the address that you transfer. For best results modify (or create) the 'Inside Address' paragraph style to match the appearance of the addresses in your document. Base it on 'no style' and apply that style in place of whatever style you are currently using. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Jan Groshan wrote: I didn't install Word 2007 over an older version.
