I am working in Word 2007 on a legal pleading and the issue is getting the
text of the pleading to align with the line numbers in the left hand margin.
What's the secret to getting this to work?
 
Assuming that you are already using a fixed value for line spacing, try
checking the "Don't center 'exact line height' lines" Compatibility option
for the document (Office button | Word Options, Advanced category).
