If they're really double-spaced, press Ctrl+1. But if there is extra spacing
between paragraphs, it could be Space Before/After. Or, if there is a
paragraph break at the end of every line, any Space Before/After will affect
every line.

Yep, you'll get no argument from me on that. One of the things I find so
disorienting about the demos we've been shown of Word 12 is the absence of
text boundaries and NPC.

What's an NPC? That's a new term to me.

NPC = non-printing characters. For more about those, see:

Thanks, Stefan. I am familiar with non-printing characters but did not
relate the term "NPC" to them. I appreciate your quick response. Also
enjoyed the link you provided. It's good to occasionally "refresh" one's
memory about the various non-printing characters.
