Hi,

please have a look at the minimal below (tex+pdf):

We always have a kind of heading followed by a block of two columns.

But suddenly on page 6, entry "Cassius Dio" has a much larger vertical space above than "Novellen" for example!

Why? And how can this be avoided?


Any help very much appreciated!
Steffen (MkIV)

Ah, this was a bad example...
I have an other snippet from my original file, please see minimal (tex+pdf) below.

Here we have a bigger space before "Gai epitome" than before "Gai institutiones".

Why is this one? How can this be avoided?

Greetings,
Steffen (MkIV)

In this case it seems that columns believes (height-wise) that there are 
12 lines instead of the actual 11 in the block above. I don't understand 
why, though.

Wow: "that columns believes"  ;o)  is there a specialist for parapsychology out there? Hans?

The appendix from which these examples come from is quite big and there a dozens of situations like the one shown above: Suddenly there is a little bit more space above, sometimes more sometimes less. But there is no rule, no structure. 

I tried to throw in some vskip to adjust it manually ... but after 3 hours I gave up: you never get the right distance.


So is there a handy work around to get rid off that column's cranky believe?


Best,
Steffen

I have never had a whole lot of luck with \startcolumns ...
\stopcolumns. Normally I would suggest using \startsimplecolumns...
\stopsimplecolumns (in the case of columns, it seems 'simple' is
better), but you probably want page breaks inside?

You could try adding a \strut to each line (number). That may not
immediately produce the output you desire, but it will help make
the columns be more predictable.

columns are quite sensitive to rounding errors so anything that messes 
up a line height makes it a problem; some day I'll do it again (using a 
bit of lua)
