Wolfgang,

thanks for pointing me into the right direction. This did not work at first ether but it was my fault. I had \setupinterlinespace[big] before \setupbodyfont. This will reset the interlinespace. However, \setupinterlinespace[line=1.7em] before \setupbodyfont works.

Still, \setupinterlinespace[big] does not change anything in the publication list.

Please see attached files. Apart from the wrong interline spacing in the references section, there is also a missing citation (ELECTRONIC: hh2010).

Best,
Florian
