Line spacing in preview view vs. reading view

Custom CSS & Theme Design
3

I solved this a while back with the help of the Contextual Typography plugin.

I’ve updated my answer a bit since then, so hopefully this helps

/* 
    This uses the Contextual Typography pluggin to add additional information to the divs
    https://github.com/mgmeyers/obsidian-contextual-typography
*/

/* Remove the gap between a paragraph and a list that follows it */
div.el-p + div.el-ul > ul,
div.el-p + div.el-ol > ol {
    margin-top: -15px;
}

/* Changes the bullet indent to be ~2 characters instead of ~4 */
ul, ol {
    padding-inline-start: 20px;
}


/* Spreads out concurent headers (of the same size) */
div.el-h1 + div.el-h1 > h1, 
div.el-h2 + div.el-h2 > h2, 
div.el-h3 + div.el-h3 > h3, 
div.el-h4 + div.el-h4 > h4, 
div.el-h5 + div.el-h5 > h5, 
div.el-h6 + div.el-h6 > h6 {
    margin-top:  25px !important;
}

/* Brings the bottom of headers closer to whatever follows them  */
h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
    margin-bottom:  -15px !important;
}

/* Tables don't have a top margin by default, so add one when following a (negative margin) header */
div.el-h1 + div.el-table > table,
div.el-h2 + div.el-table > table,
div.el-h3 + div.el-table > table,
div.el-h3 + div.el-table > table,
div.el-h4 + div.el-table > table,
div.el-h6 + div.el-table > table {
    margin-top: 20px;
}

/* Tighten up the seperator line */
hr {
    margin-top: 11px;
    margin-bottom: 11px;
}

div.el-h3 + div.el-hr > hr {
    margin-top: 25px;
}
