Lecture 3: How to Fix the Extra Spacing Between Paragraphs in MS Word 2007
To format your assignment properly, and thereby avoid lower grades, you must do the following:
Right click anywhere in a blank document. If the words "edit header" appear, try this step again, but click a bit lower down in the document.
Choose "Paragraph."
Locate "Spacing" and change the "Before" and "After" settings to "0 pt"
Change the "Line spacing" to double.
Click the "Default" button at the bottom of the splash box.
You will be asked if you wish to change the default settings. Click "Yes."
Right click a second time in the blank document.
Choose "Font."
Change the font to Times New Roman, and the size to 12 pt.
Click the "Default" button at the bottom of the splash box.
You will be asked if you wish to change the default settings. Click "Yes."
With these settings you will no longer have formatting problems.
