Chapter 3 Formatting Text and Paragraphs 57

Â Standard line spacing: The space between lines is proportional to font size. Use this

when the relative distance between ascenders (parts of letters that extend to the

top of the line) and descenders (parts of letters that extend below the line) should

remain fixed.

Â At Least: The distance from one line to the next will never be less than the value

you set, but it may be larger for larger fonts in order to prevent overlapping text

lines. Use this when the distance between lines should remain fixed, but overlap is

not desired if the text should get large.

Â Between: The value you set is added to (or subtracted from) the font size. As font

size changes, the distance between lines changes, too. Use this to set a specific

distance between ascenders and descenders, regardless of font size.

3 Type a point value in the Line field, or click the up or down arrows next to the field.

To adjust the amount of space before or after a paragraph:

1 Place the cursor in the paragraph you want to change, or select several paragraphs.

2 In the Text Inspector, drag the Before Paragraph or After Paragraph slider. You can also

type a specific amount (5 points, for example) in the text box.

Note: Spacing before a paragraph does not appear if the paragraph is the first one

following a layout break, or if it’s the first paragraph in a text box, shape, or table cell.

Spacing after a paragraph does not appear if it’s the last paragraph before a layout

break. To set spacing around text in boxes, shapes, and table cells, use the Inset

Margin control, described in “Formatting a Text Box or Shape” on page 69.

To adjust the amount of space between characters:

1 Place the cursor in the word you want to change, or select a block of text.

2 In the Text Inspector, drag the Character slider.

Dragging the slider to the left brings the letters closer together; dragging it to the

right moves them farther apart.

Setting Text Color in the Text Inspector

You can also use the Text pane of the Text Inspector to change text color. Changes

made to text color in the Text Inspector will override text color changes made in the

Font panel, and vice versa. (To read about the Font panel, see “Using the Font Panel to

Format Text” on page 48.)
