Formatting Question
This has me preplexed! Sometimes when I copy something from the internet
such as a newsletter into Word, the formatting stays the same - the text only covers half the page - 50 letters or so and then it starts a new line. The only way I know to get the text to flow across the whole page is to go to the end of each line and hit Delete to take out the line breaks and spacing. If it's a long message, this can take some time! Is there a quicker way to remove the formatting from the page I copied? There are no tabs in Word, just as if there is some invisible formatting I'm not aware of. Thanks! |
