Hello,
I'm having a small problem with Word: I have an internship report to submit and when I justify my text, sometimes it works normally and other times, I don't know what's going on but it puts 2 words per line! Plus, the words are way too spaced out.
I know it might seem like a silly question, but I can't submit a document with 2 words per line!
Could you help me? Thanks in advance!

A tip:
when you press your "enter" key for a new line in Word, be careful not to hold down the shift key at the same time.
Why?
Simply because it’s not the same control character when you hit "Enter" or "Shift-Enter".
Enter is a paragraph break, so justification is handled by paragraph.
Shift-Enter is merely a way to force a line break. So if you have two words on a line and there's a "Shift-Enter" at the end, those two words will try to justify because Word understands that it's the same paragraph.
To display control characters, you need to use the button ¶ from the menu.
There you can see in your text that "Enter" is represented by ¶
and that "Shift-Enter" is represented by a small arrow (the same as on the Enter key of the computer)
Catch you later!
