[QUOTE="Irving Ragweed, post: 1383662, member: 243415"] [b]Figured it out![/b] So, I don't quite understand what's happening in this fix, but it works. The basic instructions are here: [url=http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/office-2011-for-mac-change-words-default-document.html]Office 2011 for Mac: Change Word’s Default Document - For Dummies[/url]. Follow the instructions beginning with "You can overwrite the Normal.dotm template..." To fix this specific problem, you'll need a file generated from someone else's Word, where single spaced really means single spaced. Once you open the Normal.dotm file, copy and paste text from the correctly spaced document--it should still be correctly spaced. Then delete the text, and save the document, as the Normal.dotm file. Now, whenever you open a new document, it will display that same file as the blank document, with the proper spacing. Cool! Hope this works for you. [/QUOTE]
