Aug 13, 2014 at 17:02 comment added MJD Usually various versions of Firefox on either Linux or Windows. I happen to have Windows 8 booted now, so here's a screenshot from there: a.pomf.se/jrujkq.PNG The bar height looks good on both pairs of symbols; the spacing is a little off for the || version. On Linux they looked the same.

Fixed a true typo.
Jun 24, 2014 at 12:39 comment added MJD On my browser |x| and \lvert x\rvert ($|x|$ and $\lvert x\rvert$) look identical, contrary to your claim. Perhaps you need to show an example more complicated than just 'x'?
Jun 24, 2014 at 8:48 comment added Martin Sleziak You can use \|x\| instead of \lVert x \rVert; $\|x\|$ and $\lVert x \rVert$. (I don't think that there is a difference between them. I've tried [asking on SE](tex.stackexchange.com/questions/77767/whats-the-correct-way-to-write-norm).)
