How to Make Wordpress Write Normally?

Hi guys... here's my question.

Its kind of hard to explain, but I'll give my best...

You know how sometimes, when you write in a wordpress blog, your text gets kind of "stretched out"? It's like... I didn't turn on the Align Center or anything, but again instead of writing with normal character spacing, it kind of increases that character spacing to some degree... and it just looks ugly!

The only way I can get around this is if I write more sentences in that paragraph, and if I target the right amount of words, the character spacing is normal.

Anyone knows a way around this? Thank you!

    Hmm sounds a bit weird. But you could try to use the HTML editor instead of the WYSIWYG. However, this could also be caused by your stylesheet. I think you should post your blog and your problem on the official wordpress forums to get better help ;-)

    Which theme are you using?

    I'm an experienced Wp developer and have never faced this problem. If you have set up a style for ypur <p> it should work ok.

    What it very common is that WP ignores your blanck spaces between paraghraphs after you go over your posts and do some editing on your images. But this is not what you are talking about, right?

    I am not sure if you are referring to Justified text where the left and right edges are aligned, in order to make the left and right edges aligned, the spacing between words will need to be different. To make the spacing equal you may want to set it to left justified but your right hand edge will not be aligned. I hope it helps.

      Hi

      Yeah it sounds like it is trying to do justified text. Highlight all the text under the visual tab and hit the left justification button. If this doesn't work then it is down to an overriding css style.

      Hope this helps.

    You can use MS Word to write posts and publish it through word or windows live writer otherwise check your HTML view and see it the WP editor is adding some code you didn't put there

    there's also several advanced wordpress editors like tiny mce that are plugins
