line spacing w/in a text box

[Barbara]

I'm having difficulty with line spacing within a
textbox. I go to the Format menu and click line spacing
and even if I adjust between lines and before & after
paragraphs I still have way too much space between the
lines. I'm designing a business card and am having to
use a separate text box for each line on the card. I'd
like to have just one text box for everytthing on the
card. Can anybody help? THANKS!

Can you post the settings you have tried? Having owned three print shops
I've created hundreds of different b/c's and never ran into this type of
problem. FWIW, I also used multiple text frames to aid in exact placement of
text, but not as a remedy for line spacing problems.

You might want to try reducing the line spacing some more.

Also, some fonts put a lot of space between lines (Cordia New, for
instance), requiring you to use a very small line spacing to get a decent
amount of space between your lines.
