How To Reduce Footer Size In Word 2016

In my final Microsoft Word tutorial, we adjusted the infinite between letters. Today, we're going to arrange the space between words in Microsoft Give-and-take without altering the letter spacing.

A Word for Caution: Y'all may be tempted to increase the space between words by adding multiple spaces. I strongly advise against this practice because calculation unnecessary spaces (rather than making private spaces bigger, as shown in this tutorial) tin disturb other formatting in your document.
