This has been discussed on this list before--it's a "feature" of Entourage
X. It assumes that if you're using Word X, you use paragraph spacing (in
Word, go to Format>Paragraph, select "Indents and Spacing" tab, and put some
figure other than 0 in the "Spacing" "After" box) instead of inserting extra
returns between paragraphs.

You have (at least) 3 choices:
(1) Stop using double returns between paragraphs and start using paragraph
spacing.

(2) Before you copy into Entourage, strip out all double returns in Word: go
to Edit>Replace, put "^p^p" (without quotes) in the "Find what:" box and put
"^p" in the "Replace with:" box, then find and change all.

(3) Use double manual line breaks (shift + return) between paragraphs in
word instead of double returns.

Good luck!
