Can Word 4.0 handle line width the way WriteNow can? Can I have more than 1, 1 and 1/2, and 2 spacing? Tim

Yes, use the "Format Paragraph..." command and choose whatever number of points you desire for line spacing. pr -- Pete Resnick (...so what is a mojo, and why would one be rising?)

Yes, MS Word can handle line spacings other than 1, 1 1/2, and 2. You can specify any spacing you want, in lines, or better yet in points which is how it is considered by word anyway. I also should mention that Word will, unless you prevent it from doing so, increase the line spacing so to that required to fit in whatever is on the line So, if you specify 8pt spacing and put 72pt characters on the line Word will increase the line spacing to fit in the large characters. You can prevent word from doing this by specifying the line spacing as a negative number. --Scott

Change the "Line spacing" option from "Auto" to anything you wish in the Paragraph dialog box (format menu). Also check under "Line Spacing" in the Word manual. Lydia gregoret@cgl.ucsf.edu
