How to change line spacing to improve readability in MS Word

March 27, 2007 By Jeeves

One of the quickest ways to improve the layout of your documents is to use line spacing.

We’ve all seen documents where the material was so densely written that you could hardly read the words? Just a huge block of words. To improve how your text looks, you can increase the line spacing between the sentences. This breathes some life into your page by giving it extra space.

to do this:

1. Select the text that you want to change:

2. On the Formatting toolbar, click Line Spacing.

3. Click the arrow next to Line Spacing, and then the size you want, for example, 2.0. 

This makes your text much easier to read and encourages the reader to approach your material.
