I use a thermodynamic formalism to study the spectrum f(α) which characterises the large fluctuations of pointwise dimension in a Gibbs state supported on a hyperbolic cookie-cutter. Amongst other things, it is proved thatf(α) is the Hausdorff dimension of the set of points with pointwise dimension α, that f(α) is real-analytic and that its Legendre transform τ(q) is related to the Renyi dimension Dq of the Gibbs state by the formula (1 − q)Dq = τ(q).
