Changing between single and double spacing

Post by mcclur51 »

Hi,

I am modifying files provided by Purdue (Mark Senn) to prepare my MSU thesis. I need the title page to be single spaced, but it is currently double. Adding a \renewcommand*{\baselinestretch}{1.0} into the title page code doesn't change anything.

Hope this is everything you need to help me!

Next time please upload complete files as attachments and do not put them in the code environment. This is not a moderator's task.

Since there are no traces of the setspace package in any of the files, I suggest to ask the maintainer of the class file for support. Otherwise you can search the class file for \baselinestretch and modify the value where needed. Or you can do that at the critical places within your document.

Code: Select all

\renewcommand{\baselinestretch}{1}
But according to l2tabu setting up the interline spacing this way is not recommended.


Best regards
Thorsten

Thanks for the help. I'm sure your suggestions would work in most cases. Unfortunately, this was a bit trickier. I finally found the answer lies in using a \makeatletter .... \makeatother string within the title page code.
