Hi. How are you all doing? Hoping you can help me like you always do.
Ok. Here's my little but pesky problem. Sometimes I type up my words in WordPad so I don't have to worry about the amount of words I'm writing and I can write away without freaking out because I have too little words and I have to accomplish my WC goal. Problem with that is that the document is always set up at 1.15 line spacing instead of single-space, and while I am typing up my book, I use single space so it looks like most books. I tried typing up in Notepad but when I do that the document is all messed up when I paste it into Works to be able to repaste it into Word to get all my words out. See because sometimes, when I paste it to Works, all my lines become single-spaced and my document is perfectly formatted. However, now, it didn't exactly work that way. I am right back in Word Pad with my document looking the way I don't want it to. Chapter 3 of my WIP. Bummer. So, what do I do to make my document single-space? What do I do from now on in WP to make sure it's always SS? Or can I download the old-school Word Pad from somewhere? I mean the old school Word Pad always formats documements single-spaced as you're typing them. Do you guys think you could help me out here? It's not that serious of a problem at all, but it's driving me strawberries and bananas. That might be a new one, but that's a way to say that it's driving me beyond bananas.
Counting on you as I've always been able to,
Magali.
