Hello
For some reason I'm having a lot of trouble getting the page to include
precisely 40 lines of text (10.5 Baskerville with an interline depth of
12 points). On an experimental file with 6 full-depth pages and no
footnotes, I find that the first three have 39 lines and the second
three have the desired 40 lines. You will see from the code below that
I have been tinkering a lot, but it ought to be a simple matter! Can
someone let me know what I should be doing?
Here's the code (and I have to desert my desk now till this afternoon so
am not in a hurry for an answer!):
Use
EITHER
height=522.6275pt,
OR
%lines=40%this messes up position on the A4 page
As I said, you’re using too many settings, some interfere.
And if you want a fixed number of lines, grid setting makes sense.
(Hint: \showgrid)
