MS Office Forum / Publisher / General MS Publisher Questions / May 2005Lay-out question
I am trying to get the space between lines very small, however before it gets close enough the lettering starts to cut off? I would like to have just a tiny spce between the letters on lines above and below. It is going to depend on the size font or the font itself. If you use 10 pt Times, the cut off is .07 sp, even then there is some loss. Arial looks good at 10 pts and .07 sp.

I guess if you had limited amount of text you wanted to get really close, like overlapping, you could create an image file with a third party program that will let you do that...then insert it into publisher.

Rob, Why not use the Measurement toolbar and change the bottom option (the A with a line above and below it) to whatever the OP wants. At 10 point TNR, at about .64 sp it is almost touching. One can select as few or as many lines as one wants to change.

I was thinking (maybe) that the OP was trying to do a logo or something along those lines...after all smashing the leading makes text really hard to read if you push it too far. > Rob, > [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > >>close enough the lettering starts to cut off?
