Hi Nancy, The two spaces thing is not done any more in books. And the daisy converter will remove all extra spaces. So don't waste your energy putting two spaces after a period. I still put two spaces after a period too. Some habits don't die!

When I learned to type, I was told to put two spaces at the end of a sentence. When I'm proofing a book, should I fix it if it has only one or should I find/replace occurrences with two spaces with only one space? Boy, I'm giving myself away as a braille and audio reader. Sorry if this sounds too elementary.
