Line spacing is the space between two lines of text. This space is important for both design and readability. At default, the line spacing in Studio is 0. But you need to remember that with each increase in font size, the spacing between lines increases while the measurement remains at 0. This is because Studio measures line spacing according to a given value that takes the measurement of each letter into consideration.

To make your text more appealing, you can decrease or increase the line spacing by using the line spacing tool. If the font is bigger, you may want to decrease the line spacing so the lines of text are closer together.

This is especially helpful in large pieces of text. Readers do not want to read a line and suddenly jump ¼ inch to the next line.

Just make sure that when you adjust the line spacing, your letters do not touch or overlap. Be sure to look at all lowercase letters with hanging stems and all uppercase letters.

Happy Storybooking!!!
