Line Spacing Problem
Can the MS Word Paragraph Dialogue be used to apply 1.5 spacing format
between paragraphs while maintaining single line spacing format on the paragraph text? I am trying to increase the paragraph spacing without changing the text line spacing. I am using Windows & Word 2000 With thanks in advance. |

Line Spacing Problem
Space between paragraphs is done using Format--Paragraph and entering space
before and after. If you wanted 1.5 in between 12-point text, I would say 9 before and 9 after would about do it. ************ Anne Troy www.OfficeArticles.com "Don" wrote in message ...

Line Spacing Problem
No, the equivalent of 1.5-line spacing is 6 pts before OR after.

Line Spacing Problem
Thanks for the tips, on receiving Anne's reply and experimenting a little I
found that using 3pts before and after (which is similar to Suzanne's suggestion) worked fine for what I needed. Many thanks to all Don "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...
