Thanks, but this is not the answer, apparently. The annoying thing is I know I've experienced this once before with another document and managed to solve it... but now I can't remember what I did.Rogier van Vlissingen wrote:
After importing a doc into another doc, I'm having tremendous challenges with irregular line spacing -- the original was imported from an msword doc, and looks fine, but after making some formatting adjustments, including changing fonts, I have an intractable problem with irregular space between lines. It stays even if I go back to the original font, even if I strip any funny formatting with "format > default."Take a look at the Indents and Spacing tab in the Paragraph styles. I suspect what you'll find is non-zero values for spacing before and after paragraphs.
Any practical suggestions will be welcome.
If you display hidden/non-printing characters, you may also find that the M$Word docs have used extra paragraphs to enter blank lines between paragraphs.
There are no hidden characters. Yes there is an extra space before the paragraph, which is what I want, and removing it does not solve the problem anyway. The problem is idiotic, irregular line spacing within the paragraphs.
What about the Line Spacing selection? Is it set to one of the fixed spacings or "proportional"?
Incidentally, using blank paragraphs for extra spaces is a bad habit learned from using a word processing program that encourages bad habits.

Meanwhile I do not graps your comment re the blank paragraphs for extra spaces - I don't think it is part of the problem at hand - and I did display all the non-printing characters just to make sure.
