You may need to paste a word or phrase in your document in several locations at exact positions, e.g. just beside some punctuation mark, only to find out that Word won’t let you do it, adding a space between this mark and your phrase.

Fortunately thε annoyance can be solved easily.

Open the Options of Word (File > Options > Advanced > Cut, Copy and Paste > Smart Cut and Paste > Settings), and clear the option Adjust sentence and word spacing automatically. Now you can paste your text exactly where you need it.

If you like Word adding usually useful blank spaces, you may check again this option after you finish your special “exact-paste” job. Enjoy!

Being yourself an author or student you will perhaps appreciate especially this feature, that the very structure of the book will teach you how to work. The book contains even chapters on how to prepare a document for professional publishers such as Amazon. Reading Steven Adams' Writing a book or thesis in Microsoft Word you are surprised realizing it makes you want to work -- to think, write, use Word and be creative!
