Issues aligning textbox spacing with paragraph spacing

Hi,

 

I have multiple textboxes on one page which make up one cohesive chunk of text, and I cannot seem to align them properly as the gaps between the textboxes are set in millimetres whereas the paragraph spacing within the textboxes are set in pt. Is there an easy conversion to get the paragraph spaces the same as the textbox spaces?

 

Thanks in advance.

You can vary the width of the different paragraphs within the frame. You could also use text wrap on the images to move the text.

Why not use a single text frame?

I need the width of some of the individual paragraphs to be different as I have an image column to the right of it. Is it possible to vary the widths of the same text frame?

If you're doing a lot of these, set up paragraph styles.
