It usually depends on where you're pasting the text from.

If pasting from Microsoft Word, try using the paste from word option instead of regular paste. If pasting from a text editor like Notepad, try turning off page wrap, then pressing control A to select everything on your page, and then paste. If all else fails, you may be stuck with some reformatting work after pasting.

the same thing was happening to me Shocked
but I figured something outWink try this

highlight all the lines of your double spaced defiant text & click on the FORMAT button to the left of the FONT button .... a drop down of choices will appear & select Normal (DIV) .... it works for me when they double space without me wanting them too Very Happy
