Thanks Peter for the detailed explanation. :) That helps me understand the baseline approach to text spacing.

I guess this highlights the different kinds of formatting needed for different types of publications, because I usually have multiple sections with subheadings that need to flow together as one passage--as opposed to a single headline at the beginning of a newspaper article. That means I don't really have the option to put headers in separate frames anyway, whether I wanted to or not. tegan wrote: > > 4) To manually change the leading (it's quite trendy in my country to > close it > right up), highlight the text you want to shift, go into Text on the > Properties Pallette and use the Offset box (top right side). > What do you mean here by "close it up" exactly? Do you mean between the text and the heading (i.e., shift up the entire body text)?
