Trying to type double space legal document on pre-numbered (8.5X11) paper. I
should come out with 28 (possible) lines of type. Double space only gives me
24 lines available. Instructions say I can adjust space, but I have tried at
least 1001 combinations and cannot get the right combination. What is the
correct page format?

See http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/BottomLine.htm. Note that you need to
measure the space between the lines very accurately, convert this
measurement to points (72 points = 1 inch), and then set your line spacing
for Exactly that amount.
