Margin/Spacing Styles

Margins (Left, Right Top and Bottom)

The Margin Percentage (%) determines the amount of space to the left, to the right, above and below a paragraph.  The percentage value is relative to the height of the font.  It should be noted that the browser is smart enough to use the greater of your margin space and the padding to determine any extra padding around paragraphs.

Line Height 

The Line Height Percentage (%) determines the amount of space (line-spacing) between two lines of text:

• 100% is equivalent to single-spacing
• 150 % is equivalent to 1 1/2 lines
• 200% is equivalent to double-spacing
• etc.

The default Line Height is 100%.
