I'm reposting this because I worry my original post is getting lost and the issue is still far from resolved. There is a big spacing issue in Logos with Hebrew text. The line spacing for Hebrew text is huge, making for very uneven gaps in resources that use Hebrew and Latin scripts. Previously this wasn't an issue with SBL BibLit, only with SBL Hebrew, but SBL BibLit had a different issue, of melding Hebrew words together in Heb/Eng resources. This latter issue has been resolved, but now SBL Hebrew and BibLit are indistinguishable: they both have the line spacing issue. I suspect part of this is owing to the fact that Hebrew text is several point sizes bigger than English text. This is totally unnecessary; it makes the Heb text stand much taller than the English. I'm disappointed this is taking so long to fix. As mentioned in my previous post, I highlighted some of these issues nearly two years ago now. I was told the issue was being looked at and should be resolved in the next version (v 26), but one problem was merely substituted for another. Can this please be looked at with all urgency.

  3. - we did look at this case as Ali promised, but unfortunately there isn't an easy solution to having SBLBibLit support even line-heights without causing the earlier character-spacing issue. I'm painfully aware of the frustrations that mixed line-heights brings, and this problem has my full attention. I hope that means we'll be able to find a resolution, but if it was an easy problem to solve, we'd have solved it by now. I am, however, asking our most experienced devs to put their heads together to try and find a solution for everyone.

  4. Thanks and , I appreciate the effort being put in. Is it still an issue if the size of the Hebrew text is reduced? As noted before, it's 4pts bigger than the Latin scripts (which even by itself I think is more than a bit odd).
