Remarks

The character height value, also known as the em height, is the character cell height value minus the internal-leading value. The font mapper interprets Height as described in the following table.

Value

Description

>0

The font mapper transforms the value into device units and matches it against the cell height of the available fonts.

0

The font mapper uses a default height value when it searches for a match.

<0

The font mapper transforms the value into device units and matches its absolute value against the character height of the available fonts.

For all height comparisons, the font mapper looks for the largest font that does not exceed the requested size.

This mapping occurs when the font is used for the first time.
