Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | In WPS Presentation, you can open Home → Paragraph → Line Spacing to adjust text line spacing and continue with more detailed settings. | Word lets you change line spacing from Home → Line and Paragraph Spacing and also adjust spacing before and after paragraphs. | Google Docs lets you use Format → Line & paragraph spacing for single, 1.15, 1.5, double, and custom spacing. | Notion focuses on block-based writing and page organization; its help content does not present a separate traditional paragraph line-spacing control like a slide editor. | Acrobat lets you edit PDF text and adjust paragraph spacing after from the text formatting panel, which is more relevant to PDF editing workflows. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: The line spacing entry is placed directly in the slide editing workflow, which is convenient for presentation text cleanup. Distinct: You can move from common spacing choices to more detailed settings from the same feature path. | Compared with WPS: Word focuses more on document paragraph formatting than slide-page text layout. | Compared with WPS: Google Docs is centered more on online document collaboration than presentation-page text formatting. | Compared with WPS: Notion emphasizes block organization and writing workflows, so traditional paragraph spacing control is not a main documented editing path. | Compared with WPS: Acrobat paragraph spacing is tied to PDF text editing rather than presentation authoring. |

Overall Conclusion
If your main task is to adjust text density and readability inside presentation slides, WPS keeps the line spacing entry close to the slide editing workflow. Other products are better aligned with their own primary scenarios, such as long-form documents, online collaboration, block-based notes, or PDF text editing.
Use Cases
| No. | Scenario | Suitable for | Main issue | How it helps |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Classroom slide formatting | Teachers and trainers | Slides contain dense text that is hard to read | Adjust line spacing to improve readability |
| 2 | Presentation page cleanup | Office users | Several text paragraphs feel crowded on one slide | Use line spacing and more settings to improve visual hierarchy |
| 3 | Template style consistency | Team members | Text styles vary across multiple slides | Apply the same spacing to selected text for a more consistent layout |
| 4 | Final slideshow review | Presenters | Edit view and slideshow view do not feel balanced | Adjust spacing, then preview again in slideshow mode |
| 5 | Detailed paragraph tuning | Users who need finer formatting | Common options are not enough | Open More Settings for additional paragraph adjustments |
