Thanks, Pablo and Henning
I suppose I am making a mistake with my setupinterlinearspace. My school asks
for Times New Roman (I use termes) 12pt and onehalfspacing. In latex I used
linespread{1.3} and so I supposed setting ConTeXt with
setupinterlinearspace[1.3ex] was the right way (I read somewhere that vertical
spaces should be measured in ex and horizontal spaces in em; maybe it's not
widely accepted).
I tried setting my interlinearspace to 3ex and it looked much better, but I
must compare it with a onehalfspacing of wordprocessors to be sure it is not
such different.
The unit ex uses the x-height value of the font as dimension, the
x-height is the height of the lowercase x (actually it's a value in the
font which is most cases equal to the height of the lowercase x) as can
be seen in the output of the following example.
\starttext
\heightofstring{x}
\the\exheight
\stoptext
To get one and a half line of interlinespace with ConTeXt you can set a
fixed value with the \setupinterlinespace command.
\setupinterlinespace[line=18pt]
\showgrid
\starttext
\samplefile{lorem}
\stoptext
