The awkward thing about this is that the chosen values are given by the publishers...
well, many designers and publishers are often not aware of these things (actually, in most of the styles i make for publishers i end up with not using any font or color system simply because there is no logic in the choices made); in luatex we can cheat by creating a virtual font with zero ht/dp glyphs but in tex this is not possible without changing font metrics
After some trying I saw that interlinespace[line=10.6pt] instead of 9.8pt would work. But this far beyond. The document I am working on is to be published as part of a series. So I can't change the footnote's interlinespace from 9.8pt to 10.6pt!
as suggested, you may try to change the ht/dp ratio and cross your fingers that no ( ) are used (or math with superscript)
Is there truly no other workaround?
no, it's like building a wall with 10cm heigh bricks and wanting 10 layers mount up to 80cm Hans Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
