paragraph spacing
Lines between sections
Paragraph spacing is the vertical distance between paragraphs in a document or layout.
In word processors and design software, paragraph spacing can be set before, after, or both: Add 12 points of paragraph spacing after each paragraph.
Adjusting paragraph spacing helps control the visual rhythm of text and distinguish separate ideas without relying solely on indentation.
