Lamport pg. 155 says that "you can produce a `double-spaced' version of
the document for copy-editing \baselinestretch to 2." Here's what I did.

\documentstyle{article}
\begin{document}
\baselinestretch 2

This is a long document

\end{document}

All that happened was that `l2' showed up at the top of the first page.
What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for any help.
