I use the Story Editor and within that I define styles for all the common types of text I will be using. When you define a text style there is a place for specifying the spacing between baselines. For a 12 point type I would typically define a spacing of 15 points. The default is 120% of the point size. The exact arrangement of the text style dialog may vary a bit between releases.
