Make the structure of your document visually obvious so that readers find it easier to identify the different chunks of information.

So, when setting the spacing around your headings, create distance from the previous topic with some white space. Keep the heading closer to the content it introduces, but with enough distance to set it apart as a heading – it looks different to the text that follows.

You can control that by using the spacing settings before and after each paragraph.

White space – areas in a document that are blank – is a helpful structural design tool, but it also gives your reader some amount of visual relief. None of us like to be confronted with a wall of end to end text.
