Character Spacing
I'm using Word 2003 and have a 200 page document that was scanned from a
hardcopy to pdf and was then converted to Word. In a number of places, the character spacing is less than 100%. Is there a way to search the entire document to find the text that is less than 100%? I did use styles with the document, but the styles didn't change the character spacing to 100%. -- Jnet

You can use Find/Replace function to find the spacing less than 100% and
return to normal. This will require several runs to cover the different scales that has been applied. Also if you have used styles, try using the Ctrl+Spacebar to remove any manual formatting from your Styles. I would believe that the scaling would be a manula formatting that has been transferred into your document.

Glad this worked for you.
But which "this", the Replace or the Ctrl+Spacebar, or Both ;-) "Jnet" wrote: Thanks.
