I learned from my wife that two spaces after a period was the professional and proper way to type and stayed with that until early word processors with their built in limitations that often inadvertently resulted in clumsy sentence structure on the printed page made two spaces impractical and counter-productive. It doesn't matter most of the time with today's computers which style you use, although simple text files can still be problematic.
