How do you turn a single-spaced Write document into double-spaced?
Why not simply Search and Replace (Cmd-F), put one space in Search and
two in Replace by, then hit the Replace All button (or one by one if
you fear for some problems...)
Er - I suspect the OP is talking about line spacing, not character
spacing.
One way:
* Go to Find & replace
* Click More options
* Tick/check Regular Expressions
* In the Find box enter a single dollar sign
* In the Replace box enter "\n\n" without the quotes. That is
backslash n backslash n
* Click Replace All
* Done.
What you have done is change the end of every line into 2 line-ends.
Another way:
* Select the whole document (Ctrl-A)
* Go to Format>Paragraph>Indents & Spacing
* Near the bottom of the pane there's a heading "Line spacing";
select Double from the drop-down list
* Click OK
* Done
