ah. a little clunky, but it works. thank you very much.

I’ve now removed the tag and the fonts are the same size in both rows of the table…and both sections look nearly double spaced again…just in a larger font than before. Perhaps the spacing looked more dramatic with a smaller font, but even with the default font, the lines are further from each other than I’d like. So I don’t think the font tag has much to do with my goal of getting the lines of text in https://speaker.miloshapiro.com/?page_id=169 closer to one another like they are in the second row of https://www.improventures.com/temp/temp.htm .

Also, please forgive my novice-ness, but I’m learning to make the leap from FrontPage (with lots of tweaking of its HTML behind the scenes) to the WordPress world and, from what you can see on the site, hopefully doing a fairly good job. But CSS is an unknown to me. If there’s something I need to paste somewhere in CSS, i’m going to need some guidance.

Regardless, we’ve shown that taking out the font tag doesn’t affect line spacing at all. Again, my thanks for your suggestions! ??

Gosh, I’d put a screen print here for you for sure if I knew how! But I think if I explain it better, you should be able to see it just by going to the link again at https://speaker.miloshapiro.com/?page_id=169.

I’m saying that within the paragraph itself, the lines of text look very far apart.

What I’ve done to make this really clear (I hope) is show the problem and what I’d like to see on a non-WP site. This is so easily resolved in FrontPage that I was able to create an example in seconds at https://www.improventures.com/temp/temp.htm .

Hoping once you see just what I mean you’ll be able to help!
Thanks so much Tobias!

PS: I DO want that one blank line between the speech title and the first paragraph, btw, so that wasn’t the question. ??
