• Resumen

  • The apparent size of a typeface was judged by 14 subjects, in a paragraph printed with different interline spacing. The results indicated that for half the subjects the amount of interline space did not affect their judgment of a given typesize but that the remaining subjects tended to report that a typesize set with additional interline space appeared to be larger than the same size of type set with the minimum possible line space.
