How do I get the numbers to line up with lines of text in a plead.
In legal pleading templates, I'm having trouble lining up the text with the
line numbers. If I use the spacing of "at least 23.15 points, it all lines up beautifully, on the FIRST page. But on all the other pages, the text is just below each line number. I can't figure out how to get the numbers and text to line up. This is a very frustrating problem!

Don't use the legal pleading template, which has "hard-coded" numbers in a
text box that is the same on every page. Instead, use Word's built-in line numbering feature (File | Page Setup | Layout: Line Numbers), which will match the actual position of your lines. You have to give up the nasty practice of using empty paragraphs to create "blank lines," though; use Space Before/After instead. -- Suzanne S.

Alternatively, set your line spacng to Exactly 23.15
instead of At Least 23.15. -----Original Message----- Don't use the legal pleading template, which has "hard- coded" numbers in a text box that is the same on every page.
