I have been trawling through the discussion threads for... prob hours and
have not found anything close to what I am excperiencing.
I have a Word document, created by someone in a different country, where the
spacing between lines, not just paragraphs, is enlarged. More than likely the
doc was created in Word 2003 or less, I am using 2007, but retaining the
97-2003 compatibility with the file. Here is what I have checked as a cause
to the super spacing:
I have copied the text into Notepad to remove any formatting codes, copied
that, and pasted it back into the word doc, but it retains its super spacing.
I have copied it from Notepad and pasted it into a new Word doc with 0pt
spacing before and after and it behaves as it should.
They reason why I haven't done that for the doc yet is because this super
spacing is affecting all of the styles active within the document. And if I
can get this worked out rather than do a quick fix of pasting it into a new
document, I'll be happier.
I have also tried reimporting the styles from the global template doc, but
it hasn't fixed the issue.
Has anyone else come across this before?

to the super spacing:
The Page Layout is set to Top;
Line spacing is set to single;
'Don't use HTML paragraph auto spacing' is unticked;
Spacing before and after are set to 0pts (for this section of text).
