Setting 2-point leading in MS Word 2013 for Century Schoolbook font

          I am working on a legal brief with very exact requirements.  I am using Century Schoolbook font in Office 2013.  I am required to use 12-point type for text and 10-point type for footnotes, but each must have 2-point leading.  Documents not meeting this requirement will be rejected.  All 50-plus bound copies..  A mistake will cost me a couple of thousand dollars, so this adds to my incentive to get this right.

          The Microsoft help function has no information I could find.  Ditto for Internet searches.

          How do I set 2-point leading for this font in Office 2013?

Answer
You can use a Line Spacing of "Exactly" (in the Paragraph dialog box) and specify 14 points.
