I have been using Microsoft Office 2003 for quite some time on my Windows
XP
system. Now suddenly I am experiencing strange line spacing in Word. For
example, after typing the first line of text and hitting Enter, the cursor
skips halfway down the page.
What is causing this behavior? How do I get it corrected? Normally I use
single spacing for nearly everything to be typed, and when paragraph
separation is desired, I just hit Enter.
Thank you.
