MS Office Forum / Word / Programming / November 2005Paragraph Spacing
Creating a new Blank document. The first paragraph, under Heading 4, appears to be single spaced, the way I want it. The following paragraph, under another heading 4, has the appearance of one and a half spacing. Even when I go back and appy Style 2 to this paragraph, it doesn't change this paragraph to match the first paragraph. Below are the settings, if it helps. Using Style 2 for all paragraphs. Settings for Style 2: Name Style 2 Style Based on Plain Text Style for the Following paragraph Style 2 Paragraph Indents & Spacing Spacing Before 0 After 6 Line spacing Single -- Thanks, Larry And the question is...? > Creating a new Blank document. > [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > Before 0 > After 6 Line spacing Single How do I get the spacing in the second paragraph to match the spacing in the first paragraph?

Another post got me thinking along these lines. Thid site is very helpful.

[quoted text clipped - 32 lines] >> > Thanks, >> > Larry If the purpose is to put a (sufficiently small) graphic, a Microsoft Equation object, or a character of (slightly) larger font size in a text paragraph (that is, on the same line as text), you'd have to specify a fixed value for line spacing. Otherwise, line spacing would vary from one line to the next. I'm sure you can find a lot of posts at www.google.com recommending fixed line spacing in such cases. Very often, though, you'd want to keep inline objects alone in the paragraph (you use it only to avoid the drawing layer). Of course, my remark on fixed line spacing doesn't apply in such circumstances. SignatureStefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP > Recommended by whom?
