Properties

Font	Gets a cloned instance of the Font defined by this descriptor. If the font has not been previously created, it creates it first.
FontHeight	Gets the line spacing of this font (i.e., the height of a line of text) in world units. Line spacing is the ascent + the descent + some recommended extra. The ascent is the height of the character above the baseline, and the descent is the height of the character below the baseline. The extra is below the descent.
FontSize	Gets the em height of the Font object measured in the units of the Font object. This is the value used to create the font. Use FontHeight instead if you want to get the height of a line of text using this font (i.e., the line spacing).
FontStyleSetInfo	Gets the font information for this descriptor.
