Line Spacing (Leading)

The vertical distance between lines, measured from baseline to baseline.

  • -Auto: Leading is set to a percentage of the font size (typically 120%). Adjusts automatically when font size changes.
  • -Fixed: A specific pixel value. Does not change when font size changes.

Paragraph Spacing

  • -Space Before: Extra vertical space added above the paragraph
  • -Space After: Extra vertical space added below the paragraph

Allows differentiation between line spacing within a paragraph and spacing between separate paragraphs.

Indentation

  • -First Line Indent: Indents only the first line of the paragraph
  • -Left Indent: Indents all lines from the left margin
  • -Right Indent: Indents all lines from the right margin

Tab Stops

Custom tab stop positions within a paragraph. Each tab stop has a Position (distance from the left margin in pixels) and an Alignment: Left, Center, Right, or Decimal (text aligns by its decimal point, useful for numeric columns).
