set font size and line spacing












2















I need a font size of 12 pt and a line spacing of 1.5 lines.



I try:



documentclass{article}

usepackage{lipsum}

linespread{1.5} %regulate line spacing

renewcommand{normalsize}{fontsize{12pt}{0}selectfont} 

begin{document}

lipsum[0]

end{document}


I set the baseline skip in the second {} in fontsize to 0pt because I think it would interfere with linespread. On the other hand linespread appears not to work.



Can you help?

  • Why don't you use usepackage{setspace} with onehalfspacing? (and leave the font tampering aside, supplying it to the documentclass as an option).

    fontsize{12pt}{0} specifies 12pt font on 0pt !!! baseline, so stretching the baseline by a factor of 1.5 doesn't do much.....

    you want a linespace bigger than latex's default so why are you setting it to smaller values (impossibly small) in the case of 0pt. presumably you want a 12bp font on an 18bp baseline if that;s what they mean by 1.5 linespace so fontsize{12bp}{18bp} your code has a baseline space of 0*1.5=0pt so tex doesn't even try to maintain a regular baseline at all as it has impossible constraints

There a 12pt font and a 1.5 line spacing. What more?

    For 1.5 line spacing with 12pt font, you should use linespread{1.241} (that's what setspace does). See tex.stackexchange.com/q/30073/105447

    @gusbrs I disagree. I know that setspace have other thoughts of what is a "double" or "one-half" line, but most people is the number of lines reduced by a factor of 2 or 1.5. At this respect linespread does a good job: with a lipsum[1-4] of 12pt you will have by default 37 lines in first page but only 7 lines less with linespread{1.241} (37/30= 1.23 ~1.25) so a factor of 1.24 is really more a "onequarterspacing" whereas linespread{1.5} change from 37 to 25 lines (37/25 =1.48 ~ 1.5).

The supplied code specifies a 12pt font on a 0pt baseline, the linespread multiplies the requested baseline spacing by 1.5, but that is still 0pt.



unless you set lineskiplimit to a negative value TeX does not try to honour a 0pt baselineskip (which would cause every line of a paragraph to overprint in the same vertical position). It just stacks the lines separated by lineskip space (1pt by default) so there is no even spacing, lines with capitals or accents take more space than those without.



It is not at all well defined what you mean by "a font size of 12 pt and a line spacing of 1.5 lines" but I would guess that you mean 12bp font on an 1.5*12bp=18bp baseline so perhaps fontsize{12bp}{18bp}selectfont is what you are looking for. But it is almost certainly better to not use explicit numbers at all and use the setspace package and one of its preset spacing commands.

    Another traditional solution for the purpose:



    documentclass[12pt]{article}
    
usepackage{lipsum}
    
usepackage{setspace}
    
onehalfspacing
    
begin{document}
    
lipsum

    • What would be the general command for line spacing with setspace, e.g. a line spacing of 1.2 lines?

      @Viesturs Besides singlespacing, onehalfspacing, and doublespacing, setspace has setstretch{baselinestretch} if a different spacing is required.

      – gusbrs

    • So, I would call setstretch{1.2}?

        The supplied code specifies a 12pt font on a 0pt baseline, the linespread multiplies the requested baseline spacing by 1.5, but that is still 0pt.



        unless you set lineskiplimit to a negative value TeX does not try to honour a 0pt baselineskip (which would cause every line of a paragraph to overprint in the same vertical position). It just stacks the lines separated by lineskip space (1pt by default) so there is no even spacing, lines with capitals or accents take more space than those without.



        It is not at all well defined what you mean by "a font size of 12 pt and a line spacing of 1.5 lines" but I would guess that you mean 12bp font on an 1.5*12bp=18bp baseline so perhaps fontsize{12bp}{18bp}selectfont is what you are looking for. But it is almost certainly better to not use explicit numbers at all and use the setspace package and one of its preset spacing commands.

              @Viesturs Besides singlespacing, onehalfspacing, and doublespacing, setspace has setstretch{baselinestretch} if a different spacing is required.

[1] A zucchini is a thin-skinned cultivar of what in Britain and Ireland is referred to as a marrow. [2] [3] In South Africa, a zucchini is known as a baby marrow. Along with certain other squashes and pumpkins, the zucchini belongs to the species Cucurbita pepo . It can be dark or light green. A related hybrid, the golden zucchini, is a deep yellow or orange color. [4] In a culinary context, the zucchini is treated as a vegetable; it is usually cooked and presented as a savory dish o
