Single
Choose this option to return to single line spacing. In this case, there is no additional spacing between the lines.
You can switch back to Single line mode using the (Ctrl) (1) key.
1.5 lines
Choose this option to activate one-and-a-half line spacing. Half a line's height is the additional spacing in this case. You can activate the 1.5 line spacing with the (Ctrl) (5) key.
Double
Select this option to activate double line spacing. In this case the height of one entire line is the additional spacing between the lines.
Activate the Double line spacing with the (Ctrl) (2) key.
Proportional
The From spin box is used to specify a different line spacing between the lines (100% corresponds to Single line).
At least
With this option, specify (spin box From) a minimum distance.
Leading
The From spin box is used to specify a supplementary spacing that is added each time to the distance between the bottom of a previous and the top of a following line.
Fixed
In the From spin box, define a fixed line spacing. The default minimum is 0.20". If lines overlap, extra characters will be deleted. In this spin box enter an amount, either as percent or in absolute terms, for the desired line spacing.
If you apply different font sizes within a paragraph, the line spacing is automatically adjusted to the largest font size. If you prefer to have identical spacing for all lines, specify a value in At least which corresponds to the largest font size.
