MS Office Forum / Word / Page Layout / June 2004Unwanted white space between lines of text.
I have inherited a 20 page document. Using standard styles to format, (Heading 1, 2, Body text 1, 2 etc.) I find that on one page a space occurs on the screen where non was requested. Using the cursor to move between lines, show that the space doesn't really exist. Copy paste to a new document shows that the new doc is fine. Copy paste back into the original document indicates that the problem is still there. Can anyone, a) understand the problem and B0 help me fix it. With the left mouse button, triple-click on the paragraph before the unwanted space. Is some or all of the unwanted space highlighted with the paragraph? If so, click on Format | Paragraph | Indents and Spacing | Spacing After: 0 pt. Triple-click the paragraph after the unwanted space.

Dear Garfield, I have tried all those kind of tricks. It is not related to the brofe and after spacing. I have a feeling that it is related to "Frames". Whenever I check out the style, whitout making changes, the text in this area appears out of place, in a text frame. Slecting and then "removing Frame" brings the text back to the "Almost" correct place. Any othe ideas Michael Atkin >-----Original Message----- >With the left mouse button, triple-click on the paragraph before the [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] > >.
