Adjusting Space Before or After Paragraphs

Is there a way to adjust the amount of space between paragraphs? This may be referred to as line spacing. So, if you type a paragraph of text and hit Enter to start a new paragraph, can I adjust the spacing between the two paragraphs?

Good point! Here’s a revised draft:


Hi Mark,

Great question! Yes, you can control the spacing between paragraphs in Brevo’s email editor. Here are a couple of ways to do it:

Drag & Drop Editor

  • Click on the text block you want to adjust.
  • In the settings panel, you can tweak the padding (top/bottom) on the block to add space between sections.
  • For spacing within a block, the line height setting is your best option.

Using the Source Code view

  • Inside the Drag & Drop editor, you can click « < > » to access the source code of a block and apply inline CSS directly to your paragraph tags:
<p style="margin-bottom: 16px;">Your paragraph text here.</p>

  • Increasing margin-bottom adds space after a paragraph; margin-top adds space before the next one.

Quick Tip: Pressing Enter creates a new paragraph (with default paragraph spacing), while Shift + Enter creates a line break with tighter spacing. Using Enter and adjusting the block padding is usually the easiest approach!

Hope that helps. Let us know if you have any other questions!
