00:00:11.820 --> 00:00:14.730
This resume's looking pretty good, but there's
just one problem:

00:00:14.730 --> 00:00:19.110
I'd really like for it to fit on one page,
but I don't want to delete anything.

00:00:19.110 --> 00:00:23.789
I think I could probably make it fit if I
just adjust the spacing a little bit.

00:00:23.789 --> 00:00:27.980
Word allows you to adjust the Line Spacing
and the Paragraph Spacing, which is the extra

00:00:27.980 --> 00:00:31.449
space before or after a paragraph.

00:00:31.449 --> 00:00:36.960
Start by selecting some text,

00:00:36.960 --> 00:00:42.640
and then in the Paragraph group, click the
Line and Paragraph Spacing command.

00:00:42.640 --> 00:00:46.370
By default, the line spacing is 1.15.

00:00:46.370 --> 00:00:52.100
You could also change it to 1.0, which is
single-spaced, or 2.0, which is double-spaced.

00:00:52.100 --> 00:01:00.940
But if you want to have precise control over
the line spacing, click Line Spacing Options.

00:01:00.940 --> 00:01:06.490
There are two things that you can change:
the line-spacing mode and the amount.

00:01:06.490 --> 00:01:10.270
When the mode is set to Multiple, you can
type in the number of lines of spacing you

00:01:10.270 --> 00:01:11.270
want.

00:01:11.270 --> 00:01:17.180
The default is 1.15, so we might change it
to something like 1.07 to bring the lines

00:01:17.180 --> 00:01:20.340
a bit closer to single-spaced.

00:01:20.340 --> 00:01:25.070
But if you're more accustomed to measuring
in points, like with font sizes, you can select

00:01:25.070 --> 00:01:27.900
Exactly.

00:01:27.900 --> 00:01:31.350
Since I have 11-point text, I'm going make
the line spacing a little bit bigger than

00:01:31.350 --> 00:01:35.050
that so that the lines aren't too close together.

00:01:35.050 --> 00:01:43.520
Now, I'll try to adjust the line spacing for
the Work History and Education.

00:01:43.520 --> 00:01:52.720
This still has a lot of extra space.

00:01:52.720 --> 00:01:56.990
That's because in this case each line is a
separate paragraph,

00:01:56.990 --> 00:02:03.299
and if you click the Show/Hide command, you
can see all of the paragraph marks.

00:02:03.299 --> 00:02:07.330
After each of these paragraphs, Word is adding
paragraph spacing, which we want to get rid

00:02:07.330 --> 00:02:10.459
of.

00:02:10.459 --> 00:02:17.959
Make sure the text is selected, then click
the Line and Paragraph Spacing command, and

00:02:17.959 --> 00:02:20.700
then at the bottom of the list there are two
options.

00:02:20.700 --> 00:02:27.220
I'm going to select Remove Space After Paragraph.

00:02:27.220 --> 00:02:31.130
Just like with line spacing, if you want to
fine tune the paragraph spacing, go to Line

00:02:31.130 --> 00:02:36.139
Spacing Options, and then you can type in
whichever values you want for the spacing

00:02:36.139 --> 00:02:37.770
Before and After.

00:02:37.770 --> 00:02:44.570
I think I just want three points after each
paragraph.

00:02:44.570 --> 00:02:50.640
It's still not quite fitting on one page,
so I'm going to see if there are any other

00:02:50.640 --> 00:02:54.890
sections where I can remove some spacing.

00:02:54.890 --> 00:03:01.170
Let's try removing some of the Paragraph Spacing
from here.

00:03:01.170 --> 00:03:31.449
Alright, it looks like it's all on one page
now.
