I have been using LaTeX for some time now and occasionally I have a
need for double-spacing between lines (like when I'm submitting a paper
for publication in a journal, which requires that all manuscripts be
double-spaced). Is there any simple way to do this? I have searched the
LaTeX manual and the TeX-book without finding any reference to this.
For the time being, I have hacked a new article style in which the
\baselineskip variable is increased appropriately in every type size,
but this is not entirely satisfactory, since it doesn't allow one to
change back and forth between double and normal spacing. Please send
replies by mail. I will summarize to the net.
