Power Point line spacing

By default, text boxes in a Microsoft PowerPoint 2003 presentation are singlespaced.

This means that one line of text directly follows the next.

However, in some presentations, you may want to double‐space text.

Or, you may find it pleasing to fine‐tune the number of pixels between lines to perform one and a quarter spacing, 90% spacing, or other options.

How to do it :‐

Click on a text box which you wish to modify.

Then select ʺFormatʺ ‐ ʺLine Spacingʺ.

You now can adjust the spacing between lines, the spacing before each paragraph in the current text box, and the spacing after each paragraph in the current text box.

Although the default pull‐downs say ʺLinesʺ, you can click one of them to select ʺPointsʺ to further tune line spacing.

As you make your adjustments you can click ʺPreviewʺ to see how they would look in the presentation.

When you are finished making your selections, click ʺOKʺ to close the dialog box and save your changes, or ʺCancelʺ to close the dialog box, so by canceling your line spacing changes.
