Set paragraph's line spacing/leading

  Choose the Inspector menu item from the Tools menu  to open the Paragraph Inspector panel.
  Set the line height to automatic, or manually set the line height.   Set the line spacing.


Set the value of Spacing to indicate line spacing.  Example values are:
1 for single spaced text
2 for double spaced text
1.5 for one and a half spaced text

If you turn Automatic on, the height of a line will be set to the largest character (or inline graphic) on that line.
If you turn Automatic off, you can set the value of Height to indicate a fixed line height for the paragraph.  If there are characters (or inline graphics) that are taller than the value of Height, those characters may overlap the text above it.
