Hi!



I'm making a word template for a client and need to use their typeface for the heading, it's called Paralucent and is programed with a very big spacing on top of the letters.

So when trying to change the line spacing in Word to a pt number bellow the font size, the text gets cut off. It's as if the white space puts itself on top of the text. Se image attached.

Is there any possible way to get around this? The standard spacing is way to big and doesn't look very good.

This appears to be a line which is set for exact spacing rather than single-space or a multiple thereof.
This is paragraph formatting, not font formatting.

To reduce the spacing between paragraphs, decrease the value for Spacing Before and/or Spacing After (see Charles's screen shot).

Since you are setting the Line Spacing in points, I'm guessing you have specified a fixed value (= "Exactly"). If you set the Line Spacing so that it is smaller than the point size of the font, text characters will be cut off.
