How do I set up an automatic double spacing after a period?
It's possible, but I'd suggest that you *not* - that technique is a
throwback to the manual typewriter & is not at all necessary or appropriate. Modern word processing ain't your Granny's Underwood/Royal/Smith-Corona :-) Proportional Spacing adjusts everything for you based on typesetting standards & throwing in the extra spaces can cause formatting, editing, text flow & appearance problems. One of the few exceptions is if you *have* to use some sort of monospaced font for some reason, in which case I find it both faster & easier to just type the doc then do a Find for . , Replace with . - that's period space & period space space without the angles. -- HTH |:) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac "kathy" wrote in message ...
