Why wouldn't this be the case with any fontsize change? I guess because
you have to change the \vskip each time. Well, in that case one could
write a macro, but I have no idea how to write macros. Also, one could
set up a definition
\def\FontSkipSize{\vskip-12pt}
and use that instead. Then you would only have to change the definition
once.
Of course, that begs the question. Is there a better way?
