What is the need to modify the spacing of the lines or paragraph of your text?

An important part of creating effective documents lies in the document design. Line spacing or paragraph
spacing is measured in lines or points, which is referred to as leading.
As a part of designing the document and making formatting decisions, you will need to know how to
modify the spacing, just as you can format spacing between lines in your document, you can also choose
spacing options between each paragraph.
