Etymology
The term 'interlined' is derived from the combination of 'inter-', meaning 'between', and 'line', referring to the lines of text themselves. Originally, the practice of interlining can be traced back to the manuscript culture in which scribes left spaces between lines to allow for annotations or corrections. In the context of typesetting, interlining became prominent with the development of print technology. The term has evolved to encompass various styles of spacing in modern word processing and layout design, becoming an important aspect of readability and document presentation.
