double spacing causes half of pages to vanish
I have a document that is 136 pages single spaced. About half is
footnotes and half text. If I select all text and format the paragraph as double spaced, every other page vanishes! Same with the footnotes. Please help! Thanks!! |

I should add that I'm using Word 2002.

Sorry for the lack of attention to detail on my part:
Please only use the jerryb99 address if anyone is going to reply by email. Is there a way to get rid of the other two addresses on the usenet in these messages?

Sorry for the lack of attention to detail on my part: Please only use the jerryb99 address if anyone is going to reply by email. Nobody is going to reply by email. That would not be a polite thing to do. Don't ask for a fish but learn how to fish. Is there a way to get rid of the other two addresses on the usenet in these messages? Except for cancelling (I see you use Forte Agent 1.91/32.564 so you could try that), I wouldn't know any way. But I fear you are too late: the big bad archiving monster has already petrified your messages for posterity. To answer your original question: I don't know. Try this: * new document * copy only one page to the new document * apply double spacing * what happens??? -- Amedee Van Gasse using XanaNews 1.17.4.1 If it has an "X" in the name, it must be Linux?

What do you mean by vanish ???? Doesnt print, is lost totally, extra pages
added ???? Need more details. John "JMB" wrote in message ... I have a document that is 136 pages single spaced. About half is footnotes and half text. If I select all text and format the paragraph as double spaced, every other page vanishes! Same with the footnotes. Please help! Thanks!! |

The most likely cause I can think of is that each page is a separate text
box, frame, or floating table cell. -- Suzanne S.

Are you sure that they vanish and that you don't have a graphics driver
issue? Try switching to double-spacing again and this time switch to Print Preview and then back to Page Layout View to force repagination. -- Terry Farrell - Word MVP http://word.mvps.org/ "JMB" wrote in message ... :I have a document that is 136 pages single spaced.

didn't cross-list, i forgot) On Tue, 7 Jun 2005 13:07:52 +0200, "Stefan Blom" wrote: You can try to copy the entire document except for the final paragraph mark and paste it into a new document.
