How to reduce line spacing on printout?

That post is far too old to be helpful as it references the old ace editor which was replaced by codemirror.

For the rendered output side you can insert some custom CSS to change the appearance of the spacing.

This post teaches the basics of how this works

For example if I wanted to alter the rendered output with slightly smaller list bottom margins:

  • Help > Open Profile directory
  • Open userstyle.css
  • Add the following to the file
li {
  margin-bottom: .2em !important;
}

(default is .4em)

Restart Joplin (as in fully, by default it probably just goes to the system tray so you need to kill it there too).

If that doesn't do what you want then lower it further or look into changing the line-height property (you can make it global or just on the li style (list item).
