Would love a video on how to fix spacing when font is the same as rest of page and isn't the issue. Do you have any videos on how to directly fix spacing instead of fixing font?

I would like to insert a pdf in ms word without changing the format (numbering, footnotes, etc.) of the document. Is it possible?

[@erinwrightwriting]

Thank you so much for watching! I have a separate tutorial showing how to insert a PDF into a Word document: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nX-Zlqpmmp2Yppo.

[@michaeldouglas2914]

Did not work for me, not sure if having word spacing issues in a table was the issue why it is not working.

[@erinwrightwriting]

I am sorry to hear that you are having an issue adjusting your word spacing. I just tried this method in a table and it did work, so I'm afraid I don't have any further recommendations other than to ensure your whole table is selected before selecting the Replace button. I wish you all the best with your Word project!

thanx it worked

When I copy text from software, for example-"16 Come" the space between the 16 and come is always this way on all paragraphs in this software and when transformed to Word I always have to right click to highlight and as it suggests it would be better for one space between words and I agree but always have to manually do this to hundreds of text when I copy and paste these paragraphs. It pastes as the default of Time New Roman at 12 pt, which is good but the start of the paragraph is always like this when pasted here. I have watched this tutorial with no effect on this doc, but the tutorial is great, don't get me wrong, just not affecting this one, what can I do??? This is a major problem for me.

[@erinwrightwriting]

Thank you for watching! Generally, extra spaces are included when copying and pasting because the software assumes they were deliberate. One workaround is the remove all the extra spaces at once. I have an older tutorial that shows how to do that: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ioTZYY17rbqMmdE. I wish you all the best!

[@ayesharauf391]

mistakenly i removed spaces between all words of my assignment and i dont know how to mange it to normal...plz tell me about this

[@erinwrightwriting]

Thank you for watching! Depending on how you removed the spaces, you may be able to correct the situation by selecting all the text and then selecting the Normal style in the Home tab. Best of luck!

how to reduce the spaces between words this was how to add one

[@erinwrightwriting]

Thank you for watching! To reduce the space, select a smaller font size than your text size in the Replace Font dialog box, as shown at about 02:50 in the tutorial.

hi erin, i accidentally removed the space from a word and time like so sentence6:05:04 would like to see sentence 6:05:04 is there a wildcard i can use to include the space back?

[@erinwrightwriting]

Thank you for watching! You might not want to do a Replace All to return the space because it may cause additional problems. However, you may want to use the wildcards [0-9]:[0-9][0-9]:[0-9][0-9] and [0-9][0-9]:[0-9][0-9]:[0-9][0-9] to find all occurrences of your number format and then add the space back manually. Best of luck!
