Quick summary
Confluence does not offer a direct line spacing setting, but you can control text density by switching between paragraph styles such as Normal text or Heading levels in the style dropdown. Choosing the right style — from Normal text for compact content to Heading 6 for the tightest heading option — lets you manage visual spacing without custom CSS.
Steps
- Highlight your text in the Confluence page editor to prepare it for a style change.
- Open the style dropdown and choose "Normal text" to apply standard, tighter line spacing to your selected content.
- Review available heading styles (such as H1 and H2), keeping in mind they include built-in padding — use them sparingly when you want compact text blocks.
- Select Heading 6 from the style dropdown for the smallest, tightest heading option available in Confluence.
