Line Spacing Values

Line spacing in w:spacing uses the w:line attribute in 240ths of a line (when w:lineRule="auto"):

Spacing w:line value w:lineRule
Single 240 auto
1.15 (Word default) 276 auto
1.5 360 auto
Double 480 auto
Exact 12pt 240 exact
At least 12pt 240 atLeast

Note: When lineRule="exact" or "atLeast", w:line is in twips (DXA), not 240ths. So line="240" with lineRule="exact" means exactly 12pt (240/20 = 12pt).

Conversion Formulas

DXA     = inches × 1440  = cm × 567     = pt × 20
EMU     = inches × 914400 = cm × 360000 = pt × 12700
sz      = pt × 2          (half-points)
