Default Can't paste text into HTML with exact spacing

Here's the issue, I can't paste what I visually see on Microsoft Word 2013.

I'm assuming that my Microsoft Word 2013's spacing options are deceiving me into thinking that each "ENTER" is worth 2 spacings, when in fact it's worth 1.

Is there a way to turn what I visually see on Word, into the actual text I need to copy?

I need to copy a huge text with multiple spacings, and it would be incredibly tedious to re-do every spacing onto the forum.

Rather than pasting into the forum window, why not attach a sample document?
Go Advanced > Paper Clip.

Word includes paragraph and line spacing in the pillcrow (paragraph mark) produced every time you press the Enter key.

What happens if you save the Word document as HTML?

Where is Advanced > Paper Clip?

I've tried playing around in the paragraph thing, in word. It doesn't change anything. (I tried changing it to double space/1.5 space/single/etc.)

I'm not sure how to do that, it won't let me choose .HTML as a saving file.

It is at the bottom of the dialog you are typing in on this forum. This is possibly the same way you attached the screen shot.

File > Save As
Pick a folder to save in.
Change the File Type.

Once you have the file in HTML, you'll need to open it with NotePad to actually see the HTML.
