I think a lot of the problems are coming from the letterhead he had us create. We have tabstops and different margins, and a whole bunch of other things that are screwing up the formatting. As I said, the class is a joke, and I haven't learned anything in the class.
Can you just save the letterhead once you format it, then insert in a new document without messing up the new document's formatting?

That's what I did, but it was still all messed up. I'm just going to insert the text and then change the margins manually. It should work that way.

Open a clean version of the letterhead, then save it as a document template.

If you are having formatting issues, you can also copy and paste the objects into the header section of the document.

This would separate the letterhead elements from the text in two layers.

EDIT- I forgot to add that when I hit enter sometimes, it just gives me like 3 spaces instead of going to the next line. Technology is frustrating.

Sometimes it defaults to adding an extra space before/after a paragraph. It's really annoying.

Us old timers remember typing on paper and thinking how amazing it was when they invented erasable paper.

I actually remember the white out typing strips - you had to line up the carriage exactly where the letter you typed wrong was and insert the strip in between the ink ribbon and the paper and retype the letter. Although it NEVER exactly retyped in the same spot so you always had a bit of a shadow of the old letter. And I have mild OCD so I would USUALLY just start over. We weren't really concerned about killing trees back in those days.

I remember my parents typewriter being a workout for my hands. Loved when they finally bought an electric one. And then loved having our first computer. Thinking about it I don't think my youngest sister ever had to use the type writer because we had a computer by the time she wrote reports.

I saved it as a template, and the same thing is happening.
