Default Too much space between paragraphs

PM 7.0 runs on my Win 98SE computer. With leading set at 24, the space between each paragraph (said paragraphs created when I come to the end of a series of sentences and hit the "Enter" button to start a new paragraph) ia too much....too much white space. How do I tighten this excess space up?

Default Re: Too much space between paragraphs

What is your "space after" setting under Type -> Paragraph - or the "space before" setting for the next paragraph?

I'm assuming that you're happy with 24pt leading.

(I'm doing that from memory, so it may be not exact.)

John:

"Before" is ".069" inches, and "After" is the same.

Once again, you are the man. I went in and reset from ".069" to ".020" and the end result is beautiful.

Thanks,

Roy

That's a total of .138 inches. Use before or after.
