Default Looks double-spaced but Word says it's single-spaced

Two things to check:

1. Vertical alignment on the Layout tab of Page Setup. If it's anything
other than "Top," you may get strange results.

2. Spacing Before/After in Format | Paragraph. If there's a paragraph return
at the end of each line (as there might be in an imported text file), then
each line is a paragraph, and interparagraph spacing would apply.

I've got a document that I want to be single-spaced - and
that's what the formatting says it is - but it looks
double-spaced. How can I change the document so that it
looks single-spaced like Word says it is? Right now, if I
highlight the document and try to change it to single-
spaced, it remains the same. The only thing I know to try
is to copy the info to a new document, format it there,
then copy it back to the original document. Please help!


Thank you!! So helpful
