Default Line Spacing in 2007

Every time I hit the enter key, Word 2007 takes me down 2 lines instead of 1
line like it used to. Is there a way to change this option?

Default Line Spacing in 2007

Check on the ribbon. There is a style called, I think, no space. The normal
style now has extra space added to the return. You can see this in the
Paragraph dialog box.

It probably doesn't. More likely it is adding inter-paragraph spacing. Check
the format of the paragraph style at the cursor and remove any space
before/space after setting.

Thanks. You're both right. Both methods fixed the problem.

Default Line Spacing in 2007

If you want the "true fix", which modifies the defaults for your Normal
template, use the following steps:

- Create a new document based on your Normal template
- On the Home tab, click the dialog box launcher in the Styles group to
display the Styles task pane.
- At the bottom of the Styles task pane, click Manage Styles.
- Select the Set Defaults tab and modify your Line and Paragraph spacing.
- Select the option, New Documents Based on This Template, and click OK.

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for
assistance by email can not be acknowledged.
