fontsizeline-spacingparagraphs
I'm confused about the look of my rendered output. It looks strange. I'm not doing anything special, but it looks like there is not enough vspace between the lines? The letters are almost touching.
I googled a lot but could not find anything about this.
MWE:
\documentclass{scrbook}
\begin{document}
\begin{center}
\vspace{50mm}
{\LARGE\textbf{Development of Self-Cleaning Clothes for Everyone that is Busy All The Time}}
\end{center}
\end{document}
Make sure to end the paragraph (using \par, for example) before leaving the group; compare:
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
% wrong
{\itshape\LARGE
Dunt venim dolorerosto do odit
ametum vulla conum dolore
conulput in vero od el
Dunt venim dolorerosto do odit
ametum vulla conum dolore
conulput in vero od el
}
% right
{\itshape\LARGE
Dunt venim dolorerosto do odit
ametum vulla conum dolore
conulput in vero od el
Dunt venim dolorerosto do odit
ametum vulla conum dolore
conulput in vero od el\par
}
\end{document}
The reason why a \par (or some form of paragraph ending) is needed is that \LARGE (and the other font size changing commands) changes the the value for \baselineskip and \par is the command that ends the paragraph and applies the right \baselineskip.
I found the answer on comp.text.tex: You just need to add \par after the tiny text (and remove the \\) like so:
\documentclass{beamer}
\begin{document}
\begin{frame}
Large Text. And then smaller like so: \\
{\tiny In mathematics, the method of considering a minimal counterexample (or minimal criminal) combines the ideas of inductive proof and proof by contradiction.[1] Abstractly, in trying to prove a proposition P, one assumes that it is false, and [...]
\par
}
(excerpt from \texttt{https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimal counterexample})
\end{frame}
\end{document}
Best Answer
You enclose the text to be typeset in
\LARGEin a group, but don't end it with a paragraph (\paror a blank line before the closing brace), so the line spacing is still that of\normalsize.Solution: Either add
\par/a blank line or -- as thecenterenvironment already provides a group and adds\parat its end -- remove the additional group.
