Line Spacing in Posts Issue
-
Could somebody let me know how I stop the spacing between lines being so wide please? When I use the return key, it doesn’t just move to the next available line, but places a space between the lines.
I’m using the WYSIWYG editor and I’ve also tried using the text editor.Thanks in advance for your help.

I would like to be able to only use single line spacing, It is currently set for double and I can not seem to change it. How do I switch it so that when I want to have no space between lines I am able to?

If you are copying and pasting from a word processing document like Microsoft WORD please read this https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/the-paste-as-word-button-has-been-removed-from-the-visual-editor?replies=3
Whether or not you are copying and pasting go to > Dashboard > Settings > Writing and enable this setting:
Formatting
__ WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically
“save changes”Blog editors and word processors are not the same and do not work the same way. The web standard is one blank line only, so you cannot add more blank lines by pressing return repeatedly like you would do with a typewriter or in a word processing application. If you want to learn how to format and space your posts and pages see:

P.S. When you create a new post, always make sure the Format tool is set to Paragraph before you start typing. It’s in the Visual editor Row 2 first position “style”. See the illustration here http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/#row-2 If you forget to do that then edit the post, highlight all in the Visual editor, select Paragraph from the Format tool, switch editor to Text then switch back to Visual and click Update.
