The `zhlineskip` Package
========================

`zhlineskip` is a package for typesetting CJK documents. This package allows
users to specify two ratios: One between the leading and the font size of the
body text and the other between those of the footnote text.
For Latin typography, these ratios usually range
[from&nbsp;1.2 to&nbsp;1.45](https://practicaltypography.com/line-spacing.html),
but they should be larger for CJK typography (usually from&nbsp;1.5
to&nbsp;1.67).

Although CJK text requires larger line spacing, maths formulae should follow
the rules of Latin typography, since maths often consists of only Latin-based
letters and symbols. The `zhlineskip` package is capable of restoring the
maths leading to that of the Latin text.

Finally, it is possible to achieve the “Microsoft Word multiple line spacing”
style using `zhlineskip`.
