Key Takeaways
- Line spacing in Mailchimp requires careful examination of the HTML code

Understanding Line Spacing in Mailchimp
Understanding line spacing in Mailchimp requires a careful examination of the HTML code to ensure precise adjustments.
When encountering line spacing issues in Mailchimp, it’s essential to navigate to the specific section within the HTML code and utilize the HTML button in the block’s toolbar. This allows for direct adjustment of the line-height code to the desired pixel size, separated by a semicolon, and then saved to apply the changes.
However, when working with Mailchimp templates, it’s important to note that while line spacing can be set within the template editing, the option to configure spacing between paragraphs isn’t readily available.
For further customization of spacing in individual content blocks, it’s recommended to use the Line Height setting under the Style tab or edit the template’s HTML for more extensive options.
Additionally, the Mailchimp help articles have proven invaluable in resolving line spacing issues, providing guidance on utilizing the HTML view, accessing the Line Height setting, and editing the templates.
If further assistance is required, contacting Support to resolve any lingering line spacing issues within your email campaign is advisable.
Remember to preview your email to ensure the global paragraph and line spacing settings meet your expectations.
Adjusting Line Spacing Settings

To enhance the visual appeal of your content in Mailchimp, consider adjusting the line spacing settings for a more professional and polished appearance. When dealing with line spacing issues, locating the Edit icon in the section and using the HTML button in the blocks toolbar is crucial.
This allows you to add or change the LINE-HEIGHT code with the desired pixel size, effectively fixing line spacing in Mailchimp. Remember to separate the code with a semicolon and click Save & Close to see the changes applied to the line spacing.
For individual content blocks, customization of spacing can be achieved by editing the template’s HTML or adjusting the Line Height setting under the Style tab in the text block.
However, for global modifications, editing the HTML code of the template is necessary. After editing, import the modified HTML file back as a template in Mailchimp.
If you encounter any difficulties, accessing help articles in Mailchimp or copying the HTML code into an email client to view the changes can provide valuable assistance.
Line Spacing in Text Blocks
When adjusting line spacing in Mailchimp’s text blocks, the Edit icon and HTML button are essential tools for modifying the LINE-HEIGHT code and achieving the desired pixel size, ensuring a polished and professional appearance.
In the HTML view, we can easily customize the line spacing by adjusting the LINE-HEIGHT code, which allows us to control the vertical space between lines of text. With this approach, we can ensure that our text content blocks are visually appealing and easy to read for our audience.
The Line Height setting can be found under the Design tab in the Text Editor, enabling us to adjust the spacing within individual text blocks.
When encountering line spacing issues, scanning a help article on paragraph and line spacing in Mailchimp emails can provide valuable insights and solutions.
Understanding how to modify the HTML code for global changes to line spacing, as outlined in help articles, helped me resolve line spacing issues consistently across various content blocks.
Global Line Spacing Modifications

For comprehensive adjustments to line spacing across all content blocks, consider exporting the template as HTML, where modifications to line-height and margins can be made before re-importing the updated file into Mailchimp. This method allows for a global approach to line spacing modifications. Below is a table outlining the basic steps for copying the HTML view and making global line spacing adjustments:
