I'm confused about the look of my rendered output. It looks strange. I'm not doing anything special, but it looks like there is not enough vspace between the lines? The letters are almost touching.

I googled a lot but could not find anything about this.

MWE:

\documentclass{scrbook}
\begin{document}
\begin{center}
\vspace{50mm}
{\LARGE\textbf{Development of Self-Cleaning Clothes for Everyone that is Busy All The Time}}
\end{center}
\end{document}

enter image description here

    Line spacing is decided by the font size active at the end of a paragraph. Put a \par before the closing brace of the \LARGE command: ... time}\par}

You enclose the text to be typeset in \LARGE in a group, but don't end it with a paragraph (\par or a blank line before the closing brace), so the line spacing is still that of \normalsize.

Solution: Either add \par/a blank line or -- as the center environment already provides a group and adds \par at its end -- remove the additional group.
