I need to convert line spacing pts to mm. My client wants 8 mm between
sentences and 13 mm above a subheader and 8 mm below a subheader and I'm not
sure what that converts to.
You don't really have to do the conversion yourself -- that's what
computers are good at. Just type your measurements into the box in the
Paragraph dialog. If you type 8mm or 13mm in the box and click OK,
Word will translate for you. When you reopen the dialog, you'll find
the equivalent number of points there.
If you really want to know, there are 72 points per inch, or
approximately 2.83 points per millimeter. So the 8 mm space is 22.7
points, and the 13 mm space is 36.85 points. But let the computer do
the work!
