Hi Sandra,

which version did you use to generate those documents?

I mean, \setupinterlinespace defaults are defined in spac-def.mkiv (for
MkIV), which read in the latest beta:

    \setupinterlinespace
      [\c!minheight=0pt, % only special purpose
       \c!mindepth=0pt, % only special purpose
       \c!height=.72,
       \c!depth=.28,
       \c!top=1.0,
       \c!bottom=0.4,
       \c!distance=1pt,
       \c!line=2.8ex,
       \c!stretch=0]

In MkII, the definition seems to be basically the same in latest beta.

There is a GitHub repo at
https://github.com/contextgarden/context-mirror/. Older defaults could
be checked there.

BTW, I thought that the default was "\setupinterlinespace[line=2.85ex]".
But it seems that it is 2.8ex since at least 2013
(http://pmrb.free.fr/contextref.pdf#page=113).

It might be that default values for interline space haven’t been
modified in ConTeXt for a long while.

Just in case it helps,

Pablo
