I work with documentclass report and use fancyhdr
package for chapters in this way:
\renewcommand{\chaptermark}[1]{\markboth{#1}{}}
\renewcommand{\chaptermark}[1]{\markright{\thechapter\ #1}}
\renewcommand{\sectionmark}[1]{\markright{\thesection\ #1}}
\fancyhf{}
\fancyhead[LO]{\bfseries\nouppercase\rightmark}
\fancyhead[RE]{\bfseries\nouppercase\leftmark}
\fancyhead[RO]{\bfseries\nouppercase\thepage}
\renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0.5pt}
\renewcommand{\footrulewidth}{0pt}
\addtolength{\headheight}{0.5pt}
\fancypagestyle{plain}{
\fancyhead{}
\renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0pt}
}
I would like to change space between the line and the following text. Can anyone help me?

As @egreg pointed out in the comments, you have to adjust the length
headsep
. This can be done in the following ways:Use the command
\setlength{\headsep}{0.2in}
where you can put the relevant value of length.Use the package
geometry
as\usepackage[margin=1in,headsep=.2in]{geometry}
.As pointed in the comment by @Mico in the comments, you have defined
\renewcommand{\chaptermark}.....
two times. Please correct them.
