Line spacing (leading) varies when I move text from pasteboard to page.

Hi, in my indesign file, leading of a text is changing when I move text from pasteboard to page. Leading in text panel shows the same but line spacing varies. I am using Indesign CC 2017 version.

Hi Sandeep,

well, my assumption is that the text lines follow the document's baseline grid on the page.

Outside the page, the grid is not defined, so the text can follow its own definition of leading.

Read into this help article to understand the issue:

View > Grids & Guides > Show/Hide Baseline Grid

You can define your paragraph formatting of your texts so that the text lines should follow the document's baseline grid.

To get you an idea how to disable the feature:
