Spaced paragraphs
-
Hello,
I have noticed that several articles I posted appear on my blog page without spaces between the paragraphs though I had them there on the editing page.
I’m wondering whether it is because they are a cut and paste (I write them elsewhere and then paste into blog). If so, is there a way to resolve this? Esp if this is still likely to happen in the future (i.e. cut and pastes!). Many thanks!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Please see here first https://en.support.wordpress.com/microsoft-word/ re: copying and pasting from Microsoft WORD.
If you want to learn how to format and space your posts and pages in a wordpress.COM blog see: http://en.support.wordpress.com/advanced-html/ Specifically see here https://en.support.wordpress.com/advanced-html/#extra-line-breaks
You can also use the pre tag. See here https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/can-i-get-rid-of-double-word-spacing?replies=21#post-2512371
In the classic editor, if you are working in the Visual editor, to get single spacing between paragraphs hold the SHIFT key down and simultaneously click ENTER at the end of the paragraph. If you are working in the Text or HTML editor, a single click of ENTER will give you a single-spaced line, and two clicks of ENTER will result in double spaced lines.
Whether or not you are copying and pasting go to > Dashboard > Settings > Writing
http://wordm7.wordpress.com/wp-admin/options-writing.php
and enable this setting:
Formatting
__ WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically
“save changes”IMPORTANT NOTE: When you create a new post, always make sure the Format tool is set to Paragraph before you start typing. It’s in the Visual editor Row 2 first position “style”. See the illustration here http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/#row-2 If you forget to do that then edit the post, highlight all in the Visual editor, select Paragraph from the Format tool, switch editor to Text then switch back to Visual and click Update.
