From: Neil on
I have always been able to type "normal" letters in Word with single spacing.
For some unknown reason, it now is double spacing everything, including
envelopes. I have tried the instructions under "help" in the program, and
have also tried the suggestion that was offered in a post on this board from
2007. Neither of these have eliminated the problem.

Thanks for any help,
Neil

Create a new blank document (for example by pressing Ctrl+N). Click Format |
Styles and Formatting. In the task pane, right-click Normal and choose
Modify from the context menu. Click the Format button and then click
Paragraph. On the Indents and Spacing tab, make sure that Line Spacing is
set to "Single" and that Spacing Before and After are both set to zero.
Click OK. Before clicking OK to close the Modify Style dialog box, select
"Add to template." If/when you are prompted to save the Normal template,
choose to do so.
