Default change single space in word 2007

Also note that when you are using variable line spacing the actual
distance between baselines depends on the font and size.

As far as I can tell MS Word hasn't changed the single spacing.

Are you sure that the line doesn't have spacing before or after it?

You can
check by going to the "Format" menu, click on "Paragraph", make sure

the box
that pops up is on the "Indents and Spacing" tab, then look under

"Line
Spacing". If there is a number in the "Before" or "After" boxes

that could
be adding spacing you don't want. Let me know if this helps.

setting than it used to be (and in every other Word Processor in

existence).
Is there any way to go back to real single space? (Just for my own
information, why would anybody think changing the meaning of

single space was
a good idea? If you want more space between lines, just put in

1.5 or
whatever, why change the meaning of single space? It's just plain

crazy!)
