My kids think it's quite a lark to add goofy words to the spelling dictionary in Microsoft Word on my MacBook Pro, which I don't mind except now I find that some of the words that I commonly misspell aren't be flagged as misspelled either. Not good. How can I clean up Microsoft Word on my Mac so that it doesn't have bogus words?

How do I set a Microsoft Word document to be exactly 25 lines per page?
Category:
Computer and Internet Basics
,
The Writing Business
Do you have any idea how to set a document in Microsoft Word to have exactly 25 lines per page? That's what the agents and publishers I'm approaching want as a standard format, (1" margins and 25 lines) but every attempt I've made to do that has fallen short one way or another -- the occasional 24 or 26 lines. Any ideas? I've queried a lot of my other writer friends, but their solutions don't quite work. They may not be Mac folks. Help! If you don't have an answer I'm going to be doing a lot of line counting and eyeballing of pages.
