spacing between lines

Dear all,

Can you please tell me how to change the spacing between the lines with css? I saw wee, letter spacing, and so forth, but can not find a way to adjust the spacing between the lines in a text block

Thanks a lot for your help

A paragraph is coded using the

tag, so you have to apply a style to the

If you want to create space.

So in this case, you would add the example that Nancy provided to your current style sheet or in the upper part of the document - depenind on where you have your styles.

So, if you have created a style rule:

{p}

line-height: 1.5em / * spacing between lines * /.

do-size: 14px;

}

This would be style every paragraph on your page.

The font size can be any pixel size, or you can use a relative measure as ems.  Font sizes can be values such as: 10px, 12px, 14px, 16px etc.,.

If however you only want a section of the page for special spacing in a paragraph, for example you have a main content div container, already implemented on the #maincontent page... then you can target all paragraphs in this container only by being more specific in your rule:

#maincontent p {}

line-height: 1.5em / * spacing between lines * /.

do-size: 14px;

}

or

#footer p {}

line-height: 1.5em / * spacing between lines * /.

do-size: 14px;

}

  • Spacing between lines of text

    I want the spacing between each of these lines of smaller text in other programs that I would cheat by making the font between the groups of 4 or 8 size text size. I can't do it in Indesign? Is there another way to do this? Thank you!

    Spacing between lines is controlled by the 'leader '. If you do not set something else, the 'automatic' deafult, spacing is 120% of the size, as in Word, but you can set any fixed amaount you like, or you can change the percentage of 'Auto' in the settings of Justificatin for paragraph or the paragraph style. Extra space between paragraphs is added correctly by adding "Space before" or "Space after" to a paragraph, not pressing Enter to make a blank line and by adjusting the size of this line.

  • How to get rid of manual paragraphs spacing between lines

    Hello!

    Long story short, I have a document from page 2000 (300 k + words) that I'm currently formatting and proofreading, it is a very old book that has been digitized and typed upward by a computer.

    To clarify my question:

    There is a problem throughout the whole of the text: rather than use auto-spacing, defined by the margins of the document, there is a new paragraph between each line. It looks like this:

    Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,

    195kgs adipiscing elit.

    SED, egestas had metus. DUIs

    fitness, neque nec finished-

    bus placerat, mi risus conv

    Allis metus, hendrerit EU-

    URIs quam non arcu.

    Since volutpat lectus vel

    dictum dignissim elit elit

    justo, EU accumsan fermentum

    SAPIEN and felis Tellus.

    Instead:

    Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, adipiscing elit computer. SED, egestas had metus. DUIs fitness neque nec finibus placerat, mi convallis metus, hendrerit quam non arcu mauris EU risus.

    Amongst volutpat lectus vel dictum dignissim elit elit justo, EU sapien tellus and felis accumsan fermentum.

    Is it possible to automate the deletion of all of these spaces of paragraph?

    Pages seems to recognize hyphens where the words are divided into two paragraphs and treats these automatically, completing the word, when the paragraph is deleted manually, so I guess that there is a kind of function to do.

    I know there are ways to do this by converting the text in plain text, but it would eliminate all other formatting, whole paragraphs are always separated in the text a bit correctly.

    Is there an online tool or something similar?

    I feel that there must be another way to proceed in the way that entirely manual, which takes a few seconds according to paragraph (71000 of them in the document = about 4 days ago)

    Thanks in advance!

    It is simply the recognition of patterns and then find and replace on them.

    In this case, there is a return after each line, except two, between paragraphs, so search on both and replace those with a distinctive marker for example < r > then find on the single remaining returns and replace those who have a space to speak.

    Then go back and search for the < r > and replace those with a return.

    But you will find there is much more to a text clean only a few returns. There are also spaces around punctuation and common mistakes around the legs, media, etc.

    5 pages is a very bad tool to do this, Pages ' 09 was better, but still not ideal.

    Use a text as LibreOffice [free] or text dedicated as TextSoapcleaners.

  • Problems with a spacing between lines when default text binding

    Hello

    I have a wall of head/time here. I'm a Word text link in InDesign CS4 and every time I have doing this Indesign emphasizes the value of space after paragraph 3 mm options rather than spaced of 0, which means that all the paragraphs are doubles. I completely formatted the original word doc and reformatted it, and continues to be. Spacing is not double the original Word doc.

    I have to manually change the value in InD which of course breaks whenever I update the text.


    What I am doing wrong?

    Check the spacing for your [standard paragraph] style options. It looks like the sapcing may have been inadvertently changed then. Also look at the spacing by default in the paragraph or control panel when the text tool is active, but nothing is selected and that you have no insertion point.

  • In designer Mode, it is Possible to the spacing between the lines of control?  How?

    Hello

    Is there another way to control the spacing between the content PUSHING words to the next line with SPACE?

    http://www.collegestudentvoice.com/

    Even when I opened UNTITLED' page without my customized page layouts there is a space between line in own page why I write sentences.

    see you soon,

    Dreamweaver101.1

    (1) never trust design mode - only view that counts is rendered in a web browser.

    (2) padding using CSS, margins and the row height to control spacing. Use not (nonbreaking space) or
    General formatting tags!

    (3) Dreamweaver is not a word processor. It is futile to try to use it as such.

    (4) give up the idea that you can control all aspects of the presentation of your document. You can not. Users viewing your page will use different settings, have different fonts and do different things beyond what you expect always. So instead of "force" users to view the document the way that you think it should be considered, use the flexibility of HTML documents to allow the user to view your content in a way that suits them best.

    As always, to learn the language (HTML and CSS) to get the best results on the environment (web pages). I hope this helps.

  • Spacing between several text boxes waiting for spacing

    Hello, I think I'm more or less on track with how I want to expose this design, but I have a question about how the text boxes are spaced of vertically. Here is my document:

    ind_cap.PNG

    I want the text to wrap the png of I inserted the floor plan. When the text gets close to the edge of the png, of course the text continues on the next line. To achieve this effect (not sure if it was the most effective method), I've created a new text box to create a new path by clicking on the Red more framed at the end of the box so that the text continues. Clearly, a novice here.

    My concern is the spacing between each box until the attack of the full text. My attack is set to 26 pt, but I spaced manually areas of text from second and third to match the General attack.

    If I had to change the line spacing, I have to manually set the spacing again box.

    Is - that the route right/only to go for what I want to achieve? Thanks in advance.

    I have to correct myself - I tried the text string with a PNG image transparent, and it did not work.  But do it the second way of drawing or reshaping the area of your image is in.

    Hi Sno-Isle,

    This can be done, if you really need.

    For InDesign CS6 and especially the trick are:

    1. you need a space framed at the bottom of your text block, which gives you the distance to the text in the following image.

    2. you have to stack all text blocks in a "column and align them to the top of the column

    3. on each block of text has a text wrapping

    Here is a screenshot of my inDesign German 2014.2 CC:

    Open the layers panel to change the stacking order of your text frames.

  • How to decrease the spacing between shapes and move the form to the top, what model creation brush?

    Hello world

    I am trying to create an external border for some tires and have a few questions about the model of brush.

    I created a solid form and then, with her, a brush model. But I don't want all this spacing between shapes, so is there a way to get rid of the spacing or DECREASE spacing altogether. Currently, it is set at 0%.

    Also, is there a way to raise the forms so that the basic lines of form are placed outside of the ellipse that is drawn? See first image below in the middle of forms at the intersection with the outline of the ellipse drawn.

    Thanks in advance :)

    Screen Shot 2013-06-18 at 3.12.12 PM.jpg

    Return to the brush model.

    1. drag the brush from the Panel forms.

    2. with the direct Selection tool or in, select the Panel layers no filling / n ° rectangle race which is located at the back of this group of brush.

    3. adjust (reduce) the width of the rectangle until you find a size that produces the desired gap.

    4. Select the shape of the brush and the no fill / no rectangle STROKE, Opt/Alt-drag on top of the original brush in the Panel shapes.

    Trial and error is valuable here until you see how it works. or you can use specific values.

    To align the bottom edge of the brush with the path:

    With no filling/no STROKE rectangle selected, as indicated above, move it down so that its horizontal axis coincides with the lower edge of the shape of the brush, then Opt/Alt-drag the brush and rectangle again in the Panel forms.

    Edit: As says Monika.
