How do I change the LINE SPACING in theTARGET SEGMENTS? Whenever I receive a package with HTML or EXCEL files from a particular client, the source segments are single spaced but the target segments default to double spaced. Thank you.

I found this one only, but it NEVER works in my case 
 
 [EDIT] ahh.. actually it works. But, implicitly works, kind of not so elegantly, you have to quit SDL Trados Studio once. And, Its displayed information is quite Wrong - what the heck is Bislama... ? a country ?

From the looks of it you are dealing with an .xlf file, so whitespace handling will be controlled from that specific file type. 
 To be more specific, please go to "File \ Options \ File Types \ XLIFF \ Whitespace" and enable the "Always normalize option". You will need to re-open the source document in order for the new setting to "kick-in"; modifying the option will not affect existing .sdlxliff files.

 There are no options to influence spacing like this. I can hazard a guess it's a font thing... but without some test file to investigate I'm not sure what to suggest. 
 Can you share a sample file or even a package to test? If this is ok feel free to send to pfilkin@sdl.com

Trados Studio > 1. Trados Studio
