This is my code

documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{book} 

renewcommand{baselinestretch}{1.5} 

begin{document}

include{Chapter1}

end{document}

I have please a question:

I would change the line spacing (1.5 --> 1.0) of a page inside the document and not the entire document and the size of the words, how can I do please?

after using your code my chapters start being displayed on the left side (which is odd and wrong) - how can I make latex display them on the right (also known as the right) side again? I'm using the {book} class.

You can use setstretch{}. If you want to only affect a certain content you can use it with a group.

enter image description here

You can also apply any size changing switches such as small or tiny inside the {} group as well.

Code

documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{book} 

usepackage{xcolor}

usepackage{lipsum}

usepackage{setspace}



renewcommand{baselinestretch}{1.5} 



begin{document}

lipsum[1]

{setstretch{1.0}color{blue}

lipsum[2]

}

lipsum[3]

end{document}

Just remember to end the paragraph before the final } (lipsum adds a par at its end). Using linespread{1.5} (or some command of setspace) is better than redefining baselinestretch.

@researcher: You could try using the answers from LaTeX — specify font point size? and keep the change to be within a group (either inside a brace group {}, or within begingroup, endgroup pair. If that does not help you achieve the desired results you should post a separate question. Also, please note that you should use the full username with the @ syntax. I was only notified of this as it was a comment to an answer of mine.
