= SUMMARY =

Many attorneys require a specialized format for legal documents. This format usually consists of a page with double-spaced line numbering from numbers 1-28. Some lines in the document may need to be single spaced. Because line numbers normally follow the spacing format of their related paragraphs, this is a complex format that is difficult to construct.

Word Versions 5.0 and 5.1
In Word versions 5.0 and 5.1 the pleading style can be created using a glossary entry titled “Pleading Paper/Line Numbers,” which can be found in the Page Layout Glossary located in the Glossaries folder. Instructions for how to use this glossary are contained in the Page Layout Glossary Information document also contained in the Glossaries folder. This glossary uses PostScript code to create the left lines and line numbers, whereas the sample document in Word 4.0 creates a header using vertical tabs and line numbers.

To easily obtain this format with Word 4.0, you can use one of the demo documents that comes with Word. The Legal Stationery Template form provides the desired format and includes instructions on its use. This form is located in the Demo Documents folder on the Word 4.0 Utilities 1 disk.

Other demo documents include Drop Caps, Resume Documents, and Word 3 Outline Styles.
