Plain text setting changes the format of my signature

[Lauren VWW]

I use the signatures like a business boiler plate. We have a signature for
any type of email reply we might need.
On one of the computers when you enter a signature and change it to plain
text it changes the entire format of it. The font is different, and it
removes any blank lines in the text.
It is Outlook 2007 and I recently downloaded it from a three user cd. On the
other two computers that it was downloaded to this problem does not exist.
When a signature is inserted and changed to plain text the format stays the
same and it does not remove the blank lines.
Any ideas as to what the problem might be and how I could fix it?

Click Tools>Options>E-mail Options and see if the box labeled "Remove
extra line breaks in plain text messages" is checked. Also examine the
file %AppData%\Microsoft\Signatures\yourfile.txt (there "yourfile.txt"
is your plain text signature) to see if it looks the way you want it.

Plain text, by definition, contains no font information.

Thanks for the help! It ended up the problem was not in my settings, but in
the way I had originally pasted the signatures. I copied them from a web page
whereas the others that did work were copied from word document.
