Note: Paragraph spacing can be modified only for text placed in a text frame. To change the spacing between cells, simply change their row height.

To do so, open the dialog box by clicking on the group arrowgroup_arrow of the ribbon tab Home | group Alignment. The following options are available in the Paragraph spacing section:
