pleading template Mac Word 2008

[Cora]

This is simply driving me nuts. The template for 28 lines is in
courier 9 pt w/ a set spacing. The court requires roman 14 point and
double spaced type. So the lines don't match.

How can I change this or create my own? Does anyone know? My
continued sanity is at stake.

I found a legal pleading template on Microsoft's website and was able
to change the body copy to Times New Roman 14 pt. I left the line
spacing at 22.5 pts. so that the page would have the correct number
of lines. 22.5 is nearly double-space of 14-pt. type. If the court
requires exactly 28 pts., maybe you could make the top and/or bottom
margins a little smaller to still fit 28 lines on a page??

That sounds exactly like what I need. HOW did you change the font?
