Line Spacing - Old MT

Do you mean you hit something and it inserted an extra space? Put cursor anywhere in the field where the problem is, then hold down Ctrl and hit 1 and then 5 on your top row, above your alphabet keys and see if that helps.
that - should

work. I have often accidentally hit Ctrl 1 and changed it to single space. Hitting Ctrl 2 changes it to double space, so hopefully Ctrl 1 then 5 will change it to 1.5 spacing!
I had to send it on to QA...so I'll let you know what they say....thank you! - NYMT2

QA may or may not know. The "trick" is actually, unfortunately, a little-known fact.

It'll be automatically reformatted when you send it in.

I, too, think it ends up formatting just fine on the other end. That spacing option (as long as you haven't hard returned) is mostly for ease in reading on our end while going along.
you're correct shipwrecked..s/m - NYMT2

I sent the report with a QA marker asking how to fix the line spacing...but no response and the report looked normally spaced in Documanage. Thanks!
Shipwrecked is correct. - I was told in ASR class.

Do not worry about the line space. If it happens because you accidentally hit a key, it will print out perfect on their end. It will be formatted just fine on their end and not to worry about it. Even if you accidentally leave 3 spaces after a period than 2.

Powerscribe Line Count Report Mar 06, 2011I'm about to transitioned to Powerscribe and have been set up on my home computer. I am an MTSO so I need to know how does PS calculate daily or per report line counts. Is this an administrative report I need to be given access to by the administrator? Because looking at a screenshot of PS, it looks like the options for doing, frankly, anything are limited to copy/paste and spellcheck. I realize it is not a word document, but how are line counts done?
