When I try to copy/paste text from a word doc to Firefox it appears fine but when I try to send it the text has extra spaces added and CTRL+Z doesn't work either for sites like LinkedIn and when sending a gmail.

Word can add a lot of extra HTML code when you copy text and Firefox can display this as spaces. If Word allows to copy (place) plain text to the clipboard then try that. Otherwise you may have to first paste the text in a plain text editor to remove the extra code before pasting in the email.

Only in applications/programs that you have a issue with.

People try to make web pages using Word and the code is terrible.

If you copy Word text in rich text editor window then you can expect issues, especially if you have edited the text in Word as that can open and close tags or produce nested tags. You can inspect page source to see what Word makes of it.
