I have a list. Editor says it shall have more space between items. How to achieve such thing?
With the enumitem
package, you can add more space between items as follows:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{enumitem}
\begin{document}
\begin{itemize}[itemsep=5em]
\item Foo
\item Bar
\end{itemize}
\end{document}
An itemsep
of 5em
is obviously insanely big, but it shows what can be done.
If you want the change to be global (i.e. apply to all lists) then you could instead add \setitemize{itemsep=5em}
to your preamble. But with a sensible itemsep, obviously.

7And if you need all lists of that type to have the same spacing you can use
\setitemize{itemsep=5em}
etc. – Alan Munn Apr 6 '11 at 11:31 -

According to
enumitem
's manual,\setitemize
is deprecated in favor of\setlist[itemize]

@Raphael Thanks for this! I still have the debian TL09, so my old version of
enumitem
doesn't work if I do\setlist[itemize]{…}
but in newer versions this will work. – Seamus Oct 20 '11 at 16:40
