I hate to say it but that is pretty normal with Office 2007. Not to say it happens on every install, but most I have seen. If you look at the spacing in the paragraph section of the ribbon you will see a section for spacing I think the default is after 10. I no longer have Office 2007 I am using 2010 but it is the same. You will need to change the spacing after to zero to resolve and I am not sure how I got that to stick in 2007. I remember we had other issues in 2003 that we changed the normal.dot and that saved it. I will see if I can find it and post back, I am sure others will have it posted pretty soon.

That feel like it could be some sort of font rendering/magnification/display driver issue... but then I'd expect other app to manifest similar behavior. -sc From: Graeme Carstairs [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, January 19, 2010 7:55 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Strange Word issue on Windows 7 HP Laptop Hi all, One of our users just got a nice shiny new HP laptop with Windows 7 Preinstalled. WE put on Office 2007 and now we are getting some really weird results when opening documents It looks like all the line spacing has been doubled, but when you show formatting there is no extra line spaces. One a one page document that was created with background and a text box, the text disappears as there is not enough space in the text box for al the spacing. We have tried, telling it to format as 2003, and 2007, we even put the office 2010 beta on (it worked better but still nearly as bad) All These documents open fine on her old Windows XP machine with Office 2007, and on my laptop with Windows 7 64Bit and Office 2010. Any one got any ideas. Thanks -- Good news everyone, you have just received and e-mail from me!
