Change the line spacing
If a line contains a large text character, graphic, or formula, Microsoft Office Word increases the spacing for that line.
To space all lines evenly within a paragraph, use exact spacing and specify an amount of space that is large enough to fit the largest character or graphic in the line. If items appear cut off, increase the amount of spacing.
1.      Select the paragraph for which you want to change the line spacing.
2.      On the Home tab, in the Paragraph group, click Line Spacing.
1.      Do one of the following:
§  To apply a new setting, click the number of line spaces that you want.
For example, if you click 2.0, the selected text is double spaced.
§  To set more precise spacing measurements, click Line Spacing Options, and then select the options that you want under Spacing.

Line spacing options 

Single  This option accommodates the largest font (font: A graphic design applied to all numerals, symbols, and alphabetic characters. Also called type or typeface. Arial and Courier New are examples of fonts. Fonts usually come in different sizes, such as 10 point, and various styles, such as bold.) in that line, plus a small amount of extra space. The amount of extra space varies depending on the font that is used.
1.5 lines  This option is one-and-one-half times that of single line spacing.
Double  This option is twice that of single line spacing.
At least  This option sets the minimum line spacing that is needed to fit the largest font or graphic on the line.
Exactly  This option sets fixed line spacing that Microsoft Office Word does not adjust.
Multiple  This option sets line spacing that is increased or decreased from single spacing by a percentage that you specify. For example, setting line spacing to 1.2 will increase the space by 20 percent. 
Example:- 
Before Applying line Spacing 
After Applying line Spacing 



Change the color of text


In Microsoft Office Word 2007, you can apply a format to selected text, or you can quickly and easily format an entire document to give it a professional and modern look by applying a document theme. A document theme is a set of formatting choices that can include a color scheme (a set of colors), a font scheme (a set of heading and body text fonts), and an effects scheme (a set of lines and fill effects).  
Example:- 
Before Shading color

After Shading color





Borders

If you want to add borders around the paragraph where your cursor is located, click the Borders button( ) to add the current default borders (the original default or the last border style that you selected). If you want to select a border style that differs from the current default border style, click the small arrow on the Borders button, and select one of the border styles displayed or click Borders and Shading to define your own custom borders. If you want to add borders around multiple paragraphs, select the applicable paragraphs before you click the Borders button or the small arrow on it.

Add a border to some text


When you add a border to a picture, or put a border around a table, or even add a border to an individual page, you can really make your content stand out.
Same goes with the text in your documents. You can choose to border individual words, lines, or even whole paragraphs. Just how plain or fancy you want to make those borders is up to you.

 The box that opens shows you all the choices you can make for your border: Setting, style, color, width.



NOTE    Make sure that the Apply to box has the correct 


setting: Text or Paragraph. You can experiment to find what 

works for you.

You can change the border around your text at any time or you 

can remove the border from your text altogether.





It's all about Paragraph.
