    First time to post. Thanks for your patience. Non-tec guy.

    Hey BookGuy...Welcome to Sevenforums. May I request you to please attach a notepad file showing the issue that you are facing?

    This way we will be able to understand what exactly is the issue.

    thanks.

    Is there any differences in the Copy source/ where are you coping from/ webpages-documents...
    Dots usually show poor/ sloppy html source.
    If your coping text from a webpage post a link to the content.

    I suspect there's a bunch of carriage returns in the source. Or bytes that are being interpreted as CR.
    If you paste into an editor that also shows the binary you could see it right away. After every word there'd probably be something like 000D 000A which are the codes for CR followed by LF.

    You can find free hex editors on the popular freeware download sites. One or two are handy to have to solve weird issues like this.
