linespread in LaTeX

Post by rajini »

Hello everyone,
in my main .tex file (where all \usepackage{}, etc are written) i used \linespread{1.3}. For 1.5 spacing. In this main .tex files i included individual chapters, appendix, list, title page, etc, using \include{chapter1}...
Now i get correct 1.5 spacing. I did not use \usepackage{setspace}.
Now in my title page i want use 1.3 spread for my thesis title, which is 4 lines of text. How to do it?
for eg., the following code (including \usepackage{setspace})

Code: Select all

\begin{titlepage}
\begin{center}
\vspace*{0.5cm}
\textbf {\LARGE \begin{spacing}{1.3} Some studies (contains 4 lines of text)\end{spacing}}
\end{center}
\end{titlepage}
i get the title with 1.5 spacing...but it changes all my table's and figures' caption in every chapter to 1.0 spacing..
please help me..
thanks.
