Bruning (BAAS 38, 915, 2007) reported on the effects of surface convection on the Fourier signal of differential rotation in the solar spectrum. The Fourier signal of medium-strength lines is not well matched unless the effects of surface convection are included. This paper extends the analysis to a range of parameters such as v sin i, limb darkening, amount of differential rotation, and convective shifts. This grid of models should help establish for observers whether differential rotation is discernible in late-type stellar spectra.
