I am posting this question mostly just to learn something . . . but it would be a bonus if somebody not only can answer the question, but also tell me how to "fix" it.
A while back (probably over 10 years ago) I made a "home-made" module by combining the BDB Hebrew dictionary and Thayer's Greek dictionary into one module. In both original modules, there are extra "spaces" at the end of some of the lines, and in lines with a large amount of text, some words have a double space in between them. Through the years and still going on, I am deleting all these extra spaces as I come across them (in my homemade module). As I do this, I noticed that the file size of the module is getting bigger. I would assume that since I'm deleting something from the module that the size would shrink, not get bigger. Does anyone have any idea why the module size is getting bigger, not smaller?

I forgot to mention, this homemade module is user editable. I'm deleting the extra spaces from it from within theWord program.

Do you know if this module started out as RTF?
It is possible if it started as RTF then in user edit it goes to RVF it may change in size somewhat.

I don't really know. But I believe the original two modules were downloaded from the official tW website.
