The line spacing increased on DOCX files created by using the XSL Utility to convert DITA files to DOCX. Please see the 4.8.2 version of the file attached. The line spacing is correct. The file attached that was generated with the 5.1 version is not correct.
That's right. We have slightly changed the "line-height" attribute everywhere in recent versions of XMLmind DITA Converter to make the output files typographically more correct.
See for example "Vertical Rhythm In Typography" -- http://blog.8thlight.com/chris-peak/2012/12/30/vertical-rhythm.html
We did not make any changes that would affect across-the-board changes to line spacing. Please explain what I need to do to fix this.
There is no easy way to revert to exactly what did XFC v4.8.2 (other than downgrading to XFC v4.8.2 of course).
Please use our XSL customizer to set attribute "line-height" to "1.2". The stock value of this attribute is "1.33".
Unfortunately, this attribute belong to many attribute sets with slightly different values (depending on the value of attribute "font-size"). You may start by modifying attribute "line-height" in the attribute set called "base-style" and see if this is sufficient.
