What TeX/LaTeX parameter specifies the distance between:
- the bottom of one line and
- the top of another line
I don't think baseline skip is what I want (since it measures the distance between the baseline of of two lines).
I want to make sure that there is at least a 2pt margin between the bottom of one line and the top of another line.

Set
\lineskip
to2pt
so that is the space used and set\lineskiplimit
to\maxdimen
and\baselineskip
negative so that\lineskip
spacing is always used rather than\baselineskip
spacing.Plain and LaTeX define
You want essentially the same thing but with
\lineskip=2pt
rather that\lineskip\z@
(which is\lineskip=0pt
)
