Please help: Extra Line Space after bolded word

I am in the process of editing a book manuscript in MS Word 2010, and there is an annoying problem that I cannot solve. I have tampered with all the line spacing options, but I'm at a loss.
When I bold a word, it introduces an extra little line space before the proceeding line. When I unbold the word, the space goes away. Has anyone encountered a similar issue? And is there an easy fix?
Thanks very much,
Jon

Are you saying that the line spacing changes when you apply bold formatting? Try a different font. Or you could specify a fixed value for line spacing (choose the "Exactly" option in the Paragraph dialog box).

  • RoboHelp 7 - Intermittently missing the space after bolded text in

    We've converted a project of 800+ topics to RoboHelp 7 and
    updated our software with the new latest patch 7.01.001. The funky
    character issues have gone away but now, we noticed that we're
    intermittently missing the space after bolded words. I've check the
    HTML code and it is the coding is the same for all of the bolded
    words within a topic, yet one word will be missing space and all of
    the other bolded words won't.
    This applies to topics that were created in RH7 before the
    patch as well topics that were coverted from RH5 to RH6 and then to
    RH7. Also, applies to topics to were originally imported into RH5
    or RH6 from Word.
    The formatting looks like this: "It does <span
    style="font-weight: bold;">not</span> post in PARA or DBS.
    Sometimes, I see the end code is
    </span><span></span> --or -- </span>
    <spaces>
    I've also seen <b> word </b>
    Problem is that it is inconsistent and we have over 800
    topics within our project. To check each topic in the generated
    version and then go back to Edit will take forever.

  • Extra White space after an inserted table

    Between a table I inserted into my document and the first line of text after my table I have almost a full page of blank space. There is no paragraph marker shown when I click "hide/show" and I cannot do anything with the document within the
    blank space. There is no page break that I can remove in the paragraph function with my cursor in front of that subsequent line of text. It is also not a style problem unless it has something to do with the table style. Please help. I'm using Microsoft
    Word 2013.

    Could you create a stripped-down copy of the document (without sensitive information) and make it available through one of the websites that let you upload and share a file, such as Microsoft OneDrive (https://onedrive.live.com),
    FileDropper (http://filedropper.com) or DropBox (http://www.dropbox.com). Make sure that you share the document (click Share, then Get a link), then post the link to the uploaded and
    shared file in a reply here.

  • Please Help , I Need semicolon ; after TABLESPACE "MFEED_DATA"

    from dual;

    TABLESPACE "MFEED_DATA"
    regards,

    Hi,
    well, I don´t know if this works for any table, but I tried two of mine and it was ok:
    select substr(dbms_metadata.get_ddl('TABLE', '<table_name>'), 1,
    length(dbms_metadata.get_ddl('TABLE', '<table_name>') || ';')-4)|| ';' As Result
    from dual;
    If the string gets too long, you must use dbms_lob - functions for string manipulation, but for "normally sized" tables, it should work.

  • Extra line space appearing - Help!

    Hiya,
    Can anyone help.  When in Contribute, I have edited and have deleted a line space using 'shift+enter', it shows as having no line space in Contribute, but when it publishes - lo and behold - a line space appears.
    Can anyone help me resolve this please?
    Thanks,
    Ali

    Try this:  After your edit, hit F5 to redraw the page and be sure that things are as you wanted.  You may discover that there is still an extra line that you have to deal with....

  • Please help, I can not open the word document after I have exported from a PDF

    Please help, I have bought this programme to convert PDF documents to word documents. All I find at the moment is that the document is not being converted and will not open once I have saved. It asks which programme I would like to select to open the saved file, and them does not work.
    Please let me know where I am going wrong?
    Ko

    Good day Ko,
    It sounds like the file extension may have been dropped when you saved the file to your computer.
    Does your converted file have the .docx or .xlsx extension on the end?  If it doesn't, try renaming the file and appending the  file extension.  You should be able to open your saved document in Word or Excel then.
    Kind regards,
    David

  • Please help: programs shut down after 60 sec's

    *Please help me:* Since two weeks or so (may be, after I updated my QuickTime), every program I opened *shuts down after roughly 60 seconds*. It is not closed but it gets out of the writing mode so that I need to click on the page first before being able to continue writing again (Word, email, also this thread). If I do not always look at my page I loose words and have to retype them again. Also, with backspacing it occurs: it gets out of the enter mode. I am not aware I changed anything in the user mode of my dear power book.
    Thank you for helping! rororoger

  • Please help: fail to recover after system crash

    Hi all,
    I tried to start our directory server after system crash due to hardware failure. Error log shows:
    [17/Apr/2010:01:35:15 +0800] - WARNING<20488> - Backend Database - conn=-1 op=-1 msgId=-1 - Detected Disorderly Shutdown last time Directory Server was running, recovering database.
    However, the recover process seems never ends (I waited overnight...). While CPU usage of ns-slapd grows continuously, the server has no response (e.g. ldapsearch waits forever). I make copies of db before starting ns-slapd and thus I tried several attempts:
    1. start as it is.
    2. remove db/log* and start
    3. remove db/log* and db/__db* and start
    4. remove db/* except db/NetscapeRoot and start
    All attempts have the same result - recovery goes on continuously.
    Then I tried to remove db/* and run restoreconfig with an old configuration backup. Then ns-slapd can be started. However, when I do ldapsearch testing:
    ldapsearch -h localhost -v -D"cn=directory manager" -b "" -s base objectclass= namingContexts
    ldap_init( localhost, 389 )
    Bind Password:
    ldap_simple_bind_s: Invalid credentials
    I'm sure the password is correct, and also tried modifying nsslapd-rootpw in config/dse.ldif and corresponding userPassword in configuration file created by saveconfig before restoreconfig.
    Again, all attempts have the same result - invalid credentials. I can see BIND cn=directory manager attempts in logs/access, but also see following line in logs/errors:
    [17/Apr/2010:21:59:08 +0800] - INFORMATION - conn=-1 op=-1 msgId=-1 - get_entry: entry cn=directory manager not found (error 32)
    I'd like to know:
    * if there any other method to make recovery process complete successfully?
    * if there is anything missed/wrong in the restoreconfig process?
    I tried several days but can't make it. Would anyone please help?
    Sorry that we're still using old versions 5.2 patch 5 on Solaris 5.9 on v440 machines...
    Thank you very much.
    /ST Wong ([email protected])

    I hope you have a export of LDAP data backup in LDIF format, if so, please stop the instance and remove all the files from your db directory which includes .db3 and log.* and __db* and then do a ldif2db.
    Once import is complete, start the slapd process.

  • Please Help: iMac black screens after startup logo + spinning wheel no cursor).

    Hi, guys.
    I'm in a fair bit of a desperate situation; my iMac's screen seems to shut down every time after the white startup screen. The Apple logo appears, & the progress wheel begins spinning, then after a while - when it would usually then go to the gray login screen - it would, instead, go black. I can tell that the machine is still on (I can still hear it clicking as it does during processing) but I'm unable to determine anything else. Nothing is visible on the screen - not even the cursor - it's as if the display had turned off completely. I'm not sure if the login screen sits beneath that black screen (I have tried to log on by typing my login details in blindly, but even if it does log in, it's hard to determine what state the computer is in without seeing the screen.
    I have tried the PRAM reset (holding CMD+OPT+P+R) during both the white startup screen, & the black screen to no avail. It seems unresponsive because I don't hear any additional chimes that I've been told should be heard during a PRAM reset attempt. I can't even be sure that the command is being inputted correctly because the light on my wireless keyboard remains off during the process.
    I've tried rebooting over & over again; the results are the same.
    The steps that led to the problem occurred thusly:
    1 - I was trying to clear some memory from my current session, so I scanned through my active processes, quitting anything which seemed to be eating up considerable amounts of memory.
    2 - One particular process I quit was 'launchd' which was functioning under my profile username.
    3 - After quitting launchd, all opened apps seemed to close, & it looked like I was forcibly logged off the machine. The screen froze during this point, & I decided to do a hard reboot to log back in.
    4 - The problem began after this hard reboot; startup seemed to occur as per usual; white screen > apple logo > progress wheel > and then suddenly, a black screen where the login screen should be.
    I've shown a flashlight into the screen while it's black & it seems well & truly like the display has shut down while the iMac continues in the background. I have had issues relating to my screen going black before, but they were random & intermittent; they didn't occur without fail during the exact same time immediately after startup, & could be remedied by using the CTRL+OPT+EJT keys.
    I am on an iMac 2010, 27", using I believe Lion OSX. I am unable to recall additional specifications while the problem persists.
    Could anybody please help me? I'm quite desperate; I was in the middle of some urgent work that I need to get back to as soon as possible.
    Thank you I'm advance to anyone with advice on how I can go about fixing this.

  • Why is there extra white space after exporting to JPEG?

    After exporting an *.ai file to jpeg using  150 ppi and 5 for compression, I have extra white space below the artwork. This has happened in two files after exporting.

    Urthie,
    What about the Artboard, is that aligned to the Pixel Grid (it is if the size is a whole number of points/pixels and one corner is at X=Y=0 or another set of integer values, otherwise not)?
    Edit: Cross posting.
    Congratulations, some things are difficult to spot (and guess for others); your finding the solution is the best happy ending.

  • Please help !!! After installing 3.1.1 restore failing with error code 2002

    Hi All,
    I bought my ipod touch 8GB and received on 24th Sep 2009. On the same day at around 18:30, I downloaded itunes in my laptop (IBM ThinkPad - Win XP OS).
    Everything was fine, I did sync my ipod with itunes. After an hour or so, I got a popup in my itunes to download a latest software update which was OS 3.1.1, I guess. I downloaded that and it took almost 80 minutes. Then I connected my ipod to the laptop, itunes throwed an alert saying
    "itunes has detected an ipod in recovery mode. You must restore this ipod before it can be used with iTunes."
    But restore is failing with restore error code 2002. I tried 44 times with all the guidelines mentioned in Apple support site. Restarted ipod, laptop, complete uninstall of itunes and every software, reinstalled itunes and everything, switch between different USB ports and tried everything but nothing worked.The ipod always shows the connect to itunes symbol and nothing else. Alas!! I am writing this. It is seriously very discouraging for the apple product users. I had high hopes with apple’s products. I could not use my new ipod even for an hour.
    Please help. The below log is being created after every failure.
    I know the below log can help the software guys in finding the issue

  • Outlook New email extra line space

    When composing a New email under Outlook 2007 the line spacing between sentences is too large, as shown in the screenshot below. Can this spacing be changed?
    I have checked the paragraph line space settings (single) and the style (Normal). I have tried HTML and Rich Text formats.
    When replying to emails the line spacing between sentences is fine.

    In Outlook check the following settings:
    Tools -> Options, open "Mail Format" tab and click "Stationary and Fonts". In the
    New Mail Messages section click the "Font" button and in the new windows click "Character Spacing". Check your settings there.
    Hope it helps you.
