The issue isn't the actual amount of space.  The issue is the status line
reporting incorrect information in Word 2003. I've seen this before.

Subject: [VICUG-L] line-spacing in Word 2003

Hi, everyone.
Just today I noticed a new phenomenon in Word 2003 that both 
surprises and concerns me.  Normally, Word defaults to single-space; 
and if I don't think to change the line-spacing to double before 
creating a document, I'll highlight the whole document with ctrl-a 
and then do ctrl-2; and this usually does the trick.  When my 
line-spacing changes from single to double, the length of my document 
naturally changes, too, so that a document that's one page in length 
will change to two.  Well, just today, I've noticed that even after 
changing my line-spacing to double, the length of my document doesn't 
seem to change.  When I do an ins-f in JAWS 10, it tells me that my 
file is double-spaced; and when I check it with the Optacon, it 
appears to be double-spaced.  But how come the length of my document 
doesn't appear to change, as indicated by Word's status line?  I find 
this very strange.
Thanks in advance for any thoughts as to what may be going on.
Rachel
