Excellent tutorials, thank you! Do your Mac instructions also work with Word on an iPad (iOS)?

I still need help getting rid of spaces between footnotes, in a Word Doc on a Mac. Thanks.

Erin - you are so great :) Ok - here is what I want - I format and layout full novels .... and they look really as good as pricey software except they are fully justified and even with me marking do it like Word Perfect - there are scattered areas with noticeably too much space between a few words .... any ideas ??? I don't have any hyphenation selected - so maybe that is my answer - but I don't know anything about the hyphenation .... meaning when WORD does and doesn't or well - not a darn thing actually :)

Whenever I click on line spacing option it doesn't work. It lets me click on it but doesn't show what shows on your end.
