Hi, Lori. Hi, Jackie.
Jackie, you being the tech person, maybe you could explain to Lori
how to Format / Paragraph / Space Before and After Paragraphs / and
making sure she's Single spaced. I put "0" for before paragraph and
definitely "0" for after paragraph (you'd be surprised what has
surprised
me by showing up in there, 36 pt, stuff like that). 36 pts after
every paragraph
adds up, especially on a page maybe filled with short-sentenced
dialogue.
And the next box is where you pick "Single" spacing.
Also, as far as making a "custom" page size, Under "File" is "Page
Setup,"
and there you can pick your printer. Since you're never going to
print this,
pick any printer, and then "Custom" might show up at the bottom of your
possible paper sizes. Also possible: Maybe a choice might be
"Panorama Double"
(or is it "Double Panorama") possible with the letter/number "A4" in the
title, which is 8 inches by 22 inches, that might help.
This is all from memory, I don't know the technicals like Jackie does,
sorry.

Hi, Jackie,
I deleted the .doc file I had been working on and used the zip file
again. I changed the font to times new Roman the size to .11 and
changed the margins to one inch or left and right. I got the page
count down from 170 to 138, but the book has 89 pages.
I guess I can leave the soft page breaks in, but just don't like
having them there.
What do you think? Is there anything else I can do to remove them?
Thanks.
Lori

U know, Laurie, I'll never understand computers as long as I live--&
I've worked in a tech support capacity &/or repairin 'em for almost
20
years now. I had absolutely no soft page breaks when I uploaded the
book.
Let's try changing the font--press ctrl a to select all, then alt o
for format. Choose something generic like aerial or times new roman &
set the font size to 8 or 10 or something similar & see what u get.

Hi, Jackie,
I have downloaded your submission, "Can these bones live?" from
step one and
am very excited about validating it.
However, I have a question. There are a number of soft page
breaks in the
book, and I would like to get rid of them. I have changed the
page length
to legal, the left and right margins to one inch and the print
size to .12.
I am still getting the soft page breaks.
Can you or someone please advise me how to set up a custom page
length. If
I could make the page length 16 inches, I am sure the soft page
breaks would
disappear.
Thanks.

2) Can These Bones Live? Bringing Life to a Dying Church
Those of u who know my work know there isn't gonna have to be

you're bored.
