Word uses the term "line spacing" for the distance between text lines within a paragraph. "Spacing before" and "spacing after" determine how much extra spacing is added when you press Enter to create a new paragraph.
If you specify variable line spacing—Single, 1.5, Double, or Multiple—the spacing depends on the selected font and size. For example, Double is twice the value of Single (as expected).
