OK, here's a challenge for any math experts out there.
I'm trying to calculate line spacing as a relation to the Pitch size, or Characters Per Inch. I want to issue this command, for a Courier New font, and calculate LS
Print (lun) (TR);(LineSpacing=LS)
For example, I believe for 10CPI, LS wound be 8
for 12CPI, LS would be 6
I'm trying to figure out the relation between 8 and 10, and 6 and 12, and be able to apply it for any CPI size between 2 and 25.
Here are some Characters per inch, and line spacing that looks OK. I just would like a formula to calculate this, rather than use 25 if statements. Any ideas?
2 72.00
3 54.00
4 36.00
5 16.00
6 14.00
7 12.00
8 10.00
9 9.00
10 8.00
11 7.00
12 6.00
13 5.50
14 5.00
15 5.00
16 4.50
17 4.50
18 4.00
19 3.93
20 3.87
21 3.81
22 3.75
23 3.75
24 3.75
25 3.75
