Spacing Around Fields & Objects

QUIK! TIP: Use a consistent amount of white space around fields and objects.

White space is any area on a document that is not occupied by text or some image or graphic element. A document can look and feel better or worse depending on how much white space there is. If a form is designed with too little white space the form may feel busy or overwhelming to a user, while too much white space can result the document being longer than necessary.
