Line spacing


Recommended Posts

I am an occasional user of this type of product and my experience in mostly around Corel. I point this out as I am probably missing something. Putting together a tri-fold with text frames (Tahoma and Windows OS) and I want to increase the line spacing as it's looking a bit cramped. I have tried editing a style and applying it but ... I just cannot find a line spacing setting, can someone put me out of my misery please?

I must admit I am impressed with the stability of this product, I would quite happily buy it now!

All the best, Ian

Many thanks for that Walt. I did spend a good twenty minutes using help "line spacing" (well there is a first time for everything) and various paragraph settings .... but not that one! I am so used to seeing the term "line spacing" I had actually forgotten the term "leading". 

A daft mistake I know but there is space for a graphic which might just have switched on another brain cell, that said I now know so thank you.

 

Regards, Ian
