Hello everyone

I wonder whether anyone could help

In Thunderbird, when I'm typing the texts of emails I wish to send, the line-spacing, the text's size and (sometimes) the font, keep on changing:: either too small, or too big, etc etc. It jumps from "Body" to "Paragraph", or viceversa, etc etc.

It happens especially when I copy and paste text from (for example) LibreOffice Writer.

Is there any general/global solution to this problem??

In advance, thank you for your kind assistance

Christian

When copying and pasting from a wordprocessor, you are likely to inadvertently include font and line spacing from the wordprocessor. Try 'paste without formatting.'

Thanks for your reply, David. Unfortunately, the option "Paste without formatting" is greyed out. Christian
