How do I condense the space between lines of text? I can see character spacing features, but I don't see line spacing feature controls. I look forward to your help.

Shift/Enter will give you a single new line
Enter alone will give you a paragraph break (double line)

Use ENTER for a paragraph return and SHIFT+ENTER for single line return

Shift + Enter instead of just Enter

I have used shift/enter to not leave a space between lines of text. My questions is, is there any way to codense the space between the lines more?

no.

what are you trying to do? If we know what kind of effect you are trying to achieve maybe we can make some suggestions.

are you trying to overlap text? If so, the best way would be to create a graphic in a image editor. (just guessing at what you may be trying to do).

Chrisj,

I was going to ask a similar question, but I'll jump in here. Use Format -
Paragraph, and if you see blank boxes for "space before" and "space after,"
it will single-space your paragraphs.

My problem is that if I use the indent toolbar button on one paragraph and
not another, I get double-spacing between the paragraphs no matter what I
do. Using Shift-Enter doesn't seem to be the solution, because it doesn't
start a new paragraph, so the indenting can't be separately controlled.
What do to, what to do?

I'm just starting to use FrontPage, and it seems to be a bit cantankerous.

The <p> (for paragraph) tag is a bloklevel tag and by default in HTML there is some space between them. You can however use CSS to adjust this space to your liking.

When you use Indent, FP places <blockquote> tags around it and since this is also a bloklevel tag it has no effect that you apply CSS to the <p> tag to remove the space as you discovered. You have two possibilities:

Not again!

2. You can use CSS to create the indent of the paragraph instead (preferred).
