After I type an apostrophe, i am getting a MAXI space. Anybody else having
this problem in word 2007?

Does this happen in one particular font?

What language is your document set to?

When you Show Non-Printing Characters (Ctrl-Shift-8), do you see a
gray dot (or other symbol) inside the MAXI space?

I tried it and it looks fine.
I even tried putting a dash, etc after a word and lining them up to see if
one is wider.
Maybe it's the font you are using?

Yes, I am having this issue also, in office 2007. The recieved email looks
fine, jsut when typing it in it puts a large space , for example that' s
instead of that's, very annoying

The first thing to do is verify that the correct language is applied to
text.

I'm having that same problem with a big space after an apostrophe. The
correct language is set, what else can you suggest?

Well, that is solved--when I change fonts the problem goes away!

I'd like to use Gil Sans MT, but that's what acts up.

Thanks for tipping me off to try something different.

Yes, I have seen this issue before in Word 2007. It can be frustrating, but fortunately, there is a simple solution. Here's what you can do:

1. Click on the "Office" button in the top left corner of the screen.
2. Click on "Word Options" at the bottom of the menu.
3. In the left-hand pane, click on "Proofing."
4. Click on "AutoCorrect Options" in the right-hand pane.
5. In the "AutoCorrect" tab, look for the "Replace" box and type in an apostrophe.
6. In the "With" box, make sure there is no space after the apostrophe. If there is, delete it.
7. Click "Add" and then "OK" to save the changes.

This should fix the issue and prevent Word from adding a large space after an apostrophe. If you have any other questions or concerns, feel free to ask!
