Microsoft Word: How Do I Globally Delete Carriage Returns?
We have a preformatted document that has carriage returns at the end of each
line. We want to justify the text. However these carriage returns prevent that. Is there a way to globally remove the carriage returns rather than to remove them one by one? Is there a way to globally indent each paragraph by the way you set up the document? Or do you have to indent each paragraph one at a time? Is it possible to set up the document so that each paragraph is indented when it is imported? We are using Microsoft Word 2003, but the document was originally formatted using Notepad. Thanks! Tim |

Microsoft Word: How Do I Globally Delete Carriage Returns?
For the first question, see
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/CleanWebText.htm. For the rest, you can select the entire document and use the ruler to apply an indent. A better approach is to define (or choose) an indented style and apply it to text. But if you actually mean an indent (as opposed to a first-line or hanging indent), a better approach would be to change the page margins) -- Suzanne S.
