For the first problem, you might try putting a blank line at the top of the signature, so that it isn't affected by the format of the message where it's being inserted.

For the second issue, end lines with Shift+Enter, not Enter.

We are having sporadic issues when using a reply signature. One of the
problems is that is changes one line of text from arial to times new roman.
the other issue is that it will put extra carriage returns in the signature.
Any suggestions??
