Figure 39: The paragraph formatting dialog box
Indents and Spacing page
The
Indents and Spacing
page, shown in Figure 39, has four sections:
• Indent: modifies the indentation of the text (before and after) as
well as the indentation of the first line.
• Spacing: defines the space before and after each paragraph
formatted with the style.
• Line spacing: determines the spacing between two lines
formatted with the style. Note that selecting
Proportional
spacing
requires specifying the percentage of a line to be used as spacing;
100% corresponds to a single line, 200% to a double line, 50% to
half a line. If
Leading
is selected, specify the amount of line
spacing in your default unit of measurement.
Tip
Setting the line spacing to less than 100% is a good method to
cram a lot of text into a text box, however care must be taken as
too small a value will make the text hard to read.
