Is your client writing a term paper on a typewriter or publishing a web site, book or magazine? The double space issue is and should be a dead one. This issue plagued the desktop world many moons ago. I know, I've been doing magazines and books for over thirty years. These days no managing- or copy-editor worth their salt would ever allow such spacing. It is incorrect and should be treated that way. Look at any book, magazine or published piece, there are no double spaced periods, period.
