Spacing

Use Spacing to change the distance between multiple lines of text. The default spacing is 1.2, and can be adjusted from 1.0 to 5.0.

The Spacing is based on the height of the A character. Spacing of 1.0 is equal to the height of the A character, plus 6%. If you have lower case lettering with descenders (the tails below the baseline on the g, p, q and y characters), you may wish to increase the Spacing to 1.5.
