  1. One for a comma, and I prefer two after a period, but one is acceptable if you are consistant.


  2. Generally one after a comma and two after a period or other end of sentence punctuation mark.  The extra space aids in readability by perceiving the end of a sentence more easily.  See how the additional space stands out.

    hope this helps

  3. one for a comma, one or two for a period as long as you're consistant.

    Don't forget to double space and use 12pt. font :D

  4. one for a comma and two for a period

  5. after a comma one space after each sentence two spaces  

  6. > One space, in both cases. Like this.

    >There is no space after an exclamation mark! or a question mark? like this. You do not have to capitalize afterwards unless you are starting a new sentence.

    >"You are so cute!", he said to me, "do you like me too?", he asked.

      

  7. one space after a period and a comma.


  8. just one after you make the comma or period. also you don't make a space in between the last letter of the last word and the period.  

  9. Comma is one, period used to be two but most people use one now.

    Make it seem longer by increasing the font size of all periods using the find and replace tool, type the essay in like size 12 and change all the periods to size 14 or so.

  10. Use 1 space after commas and 2 spaces after a period.

  11. 1 after each will do. But if you want, you can add 2 spaces after a period. Oh and use a line spacing of atleast 1.5, thats what I do :P

  12. 1 space after comma and 2 after a period is what they taught when I took typing many years ago.

  13. only 1 space for each. Just finished up a writing class so I am pretty sure this is correct.  

  14. 1 space after commas, 2 spaces after a period.  See what I mean?  lol

  15. you just need 1 space. lol hope you do well

  16. 1and1

  17. One space after a comma, and two spaces after a period.

    Double space between paragraphs.  Mind your margins too, to keep continuity  through out your subsequent pages.   ;)
