Select the paragraph and then go to Format, Paragraph, Indents & Spacing tab, Line Spacing for plenty of options.

This issue is precisely why I just DELETED Libre and went back to Open office. You select help and the help for Libre is SHODDY, badly written and unclear. You do NOT put out a program such as this without clear help. For example, look for line spacing and ALL THAT LIBRE'S HELP GIVES YOU IS "Open context menu - choose Line Spacing."

Really? WHERE IS "CONTEXT MENU." The above THANK YOU!!!! Explains "Select the paragraph and then go to Format, Paragraph, Indents & Spacing tab, Line Spacing" THEN YOU open the context menu > Line Spacing.

This kind of shoddy work is unacceptable. Until Libre can handle a basic help answer for something as fundamental as line spacing, I'm outta here.

and that comment totally misses that offline help basically is identical to OpenOffice.org help. The two didn't diverge that much yet, both have 90% or more same functionality and thus same help content.

PS: Context-menu is the menu that opens when you click with the right mouse-button
