My question relates to writing novels and other text-centric books using LaTex. I have investigated the possibility of using grid layout techniques in LaTex with no luck.
In a two-sided book document, is it possible to obtain the same number of lines per page? The problem right now is that the completed text ends up with say 60 lines of text on one page and the facing page has 61 lines of text. My objective is to obtain an even distribution of text on pages of text with the exception of a chapter end which may have half a page of text.
Many thanks, Mike

. to get the first page of a chapter to set on the grid it is necessary for the title setting to occupy a space that is an exact multiple of the\baselineskip

to 2pt could be the reason. In that case a different number of paragraphs on a page could result in a differnt number of lines on a page. – esdd Jan 1 '16 at 20:00
