BOOSH! My paper is now almost done because I didn't realize I had it set to 1.5 spacing instead of double spacing. I now have almost 7 full pages to an 8 page paper.

I like happy accidents like that. Good job.

Nice! Now you just jack that up to a 14-point font and you're done ;)

Can't do that -j. It's specified 11 or 12 pt font, 1" margins. I'm pressing it by going 1.05 and hoping she doesn't get a ruler out. I did use a "big" font though, bookman old style.

Hahaha...good thing she didn't specify the font to use.

Webdings!

I bet he'd get his grade docked for that.

Damn, I'm gonna have to get real specific when I assign papers, I can tell.

@Oom Mao Mao - Tell your students that some guy on the internet is sorry he helped you out with that. ;)

How 'bout the kerning? Tracking? :)

@Oom: "When you said 'pages', you didn't explicitly exclude 3x5 notecards as pages..."

Jay Def said, (37 days ago)

Oooo...write it on A7 pages!

I actually took it back to Arial, 12pt, so it's sitting at 6.5 pages right now.

Yayyyyyyyy. I did that once. Only I never realized I had it on 1.5 so I got it back and my teach was like "too long." But she liked it anyways so whatevs. GOODSTORY.

Did you start drinking though, hmmm?

Jay: It's all letter of the law, man. I swear students will search and find any possible loophole.

Yup! Three Labatts into the evening. I should probably hit the beds here soon though. Maybe I'll play some COD though...
