ID: Q190231

The information in this article applies to:

• Microsoft Outlook 98

SYMPTOMS

While using Microsoft Outlook 98, you notice that the paragraph spacing of text copied from certain programs changes when pasted into an HTML mail message.

CAUSE

The HTML paragraph style is automatically applied to text pasted into an HTML message. Pasting text created in Microsoft Word will exhibit this behavior. However it does not occur with text pasted from Notepad. Word can create text with an attached style while Notepad cannot.

RESOLUTION

To adjust the line spacing, follow these steps:

1. Select the text that you wish to adjust.

2. On the Format menu, click Style and then click Normal.
