  Spacing issues continue to be a huge problem– can I control the auto-space between lines (ie a variety of .75 instead of 1 or double spaced, etc)? Also it did not work when I tried the shift-return suggestion to be able to return without using a new paragraph. I am using a Mac.

  If you look at http://www.connectfilmfestival.com
  I think you will immediately see what I mean, the formatting is terrible.

  Also, is there any direct way to control font size? I don’t understand the header 1/header 2/etc, I just want to be able to select the font size.

  Please email to: (email visible only to moderators and staff)

  Also, 3rd question– how do I get a hit counter? And can I make that hitcounter invisible?

  Thank you so much!
  Cheers,
  Lindsey

  Hi Lindsey,

  If you click over to the Text editor of that page, you’ll see you’ve got a lot of HTML formatting in there:
  Editors

  Are you formatting your posts and pages in some other application and copying them over?

  To change the font size or style of your fonts universally, you’d need to get the Custom Design upgrade:
  Custom Design

  Otherwise, you can change them on a per-post or per-page basis using HTML, but it’s a bit fiddly. We have some tips here:

  Another option would be to try out some different themes and go with one that has a larger default font or a font style you like better.

  By default, a hard return in the Visual editor leaves one blank line, like a paragraph break.

  Also, 3rd question– how do I get a hit counter? And can I make that hitcounter invisible?

  You can see your stats here:

  There’s a built-in hit counter that counts your visitors and views, and you can read more about what it measures here:
  Stats

  Let me know if you have further questions about this!
