Hello there, I was just wondering, why does the 1.5 spacing look smaller than usual in the MS Word 2007 than in your example there? Your example looks more like a 2.0 spacing when I tried it with my MS Word.

I was just a bit confused ^^;

For Word 2010: click on the Page Lay-out tab, find the word Paragraph under the Indent and Spacing sections. There is a small arrow to the right of the word Paragraph. Click on it. An information box labeled Paragraph pops up. On the Indents and Spacing Tab in this Paragraph Information Box, look for the section labeled Spacing. There are two boxes labeled Before and After. Make sure the word “Auto” appears in both boxes, then close the information box. This will give you normal single spacing on your document.

I type my book manuscript into Word 2010, save, then close. Then I open it to discover the font and spacings have changed in various places. So I fix it, save and close.
Next day, same problem spacings and fonts have changed in several places.
I don’t want it in PDF. The Publisher wants it in Word.
How do I get Word to stay put. What’s the glue fix?

The problem is they designed Word 2007 based on a focus group comprised largely of educators. This is a target group of Microsoft to try to get a switch from Apple-based word processing and office aps (since Apple is predominant in many schools) and get them to use MS Office instead. I discovered this due to the fact that I use it for business and my kids for school. They were getting direction from their teachers to format almost exactly as Word formats it here, especially in regard to line after paragraph. Also, on their own website MS said they used a focus group of educators who said they wanted more white space on the page. Another example of Microsoft knows better than you do what you want to do with your stuff. =(
