I noticed the abominable chasm of empty space below all characters in my table.
Changing the font, font size and leading did nada. Similar questions had been asked, but I didn't find the same. The 'what TjJ' is in a p
column in a longtable, making it an m
or b
column (from the array
package) does nothing visually significant. Adjusting \addtolength\aboverulesep{}
and \..\below..
, and \midrule[0pt]
-ing ruins the coloring scheme, unless I'm using it wrong from the little I'd tried. In MS Paint I measured the distances to the top/bottom from the j
, I want those two distances equal, without any extra been put in. Is that even possible?
Is any code example necessary if the abyssal void persists and pervades regardlessly? :
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{longtable}
\begin{document}
\begin{longtable}{l p{1cm}}\hline
foo & bar \\\hline
foo & bar \\\hline
\end{longtable}
\end{document}
Here is an example of the m
column with pag
font being the same height as the default roman when superpositioned.
The m
,t
,b
column types vertically align the rest of the columns as if the they're \multirow
-s. With the following you can test to see that most (haven't tried all) font families doesn't equal space to the \hline
s above/below their longest ascenders/descenders.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{array,longtable}
\begin{document}
\fontfamily{pag}\selectfont% select any font really
\begin{longtable}{l p{11cm}}\hline
foo & AaBbCcDdEeFfGgHhIiJjKkLlMmNnOoPpQqRrSsTtUuVvWwXxYyZz and this continue to second row \\\hline
\end{longtable}
\vspace*{-48.8pt}
\fontfamily{lmtt}\selectfont% select any font really
\begin{longtable}{l m{11cm}}\hline
foo & AaBbCcDdEeFfGgHhIiJjKkLlMmNnOoPpQqRrSsTtUuVvWwXxYyZz and this continue to second row \\\hline
\end{longtable}
\vspace*{-48.8pt}
\fontfamily{ppl}\selectfont% select any font really
\begin{longtable}{l b{11cm}}\hline
foo & AaBbCcDdEeFfGgHhIiJjKkLlMmNnOoPpQqRrSsTtUuVvWwXxYyZz and this continue to second row \\\hline
\end{longtable}
\end{document}
