The heights and widths specified for the
[Base
Line]
,
[Capital Line]
and
[Set Lines]
are the
reference mask for creating the font character.
When characters created with Font Creator are
imported into Layout & Editing, the width and
height of the characters will be in the following
area.
Character height: from Base Line
a
to
Capital Line
b
Character width: from Set Line (Left)
f
to Set
Line (Right)
g
In order to align the height of the characters, the
[Ascender Line]
,
[Mean Line]
and
[Descender
Line]
appear the same with all characters.
Therefore, if the height of any of these lines is
changed, the setting is maintained, even when a
different character is selected to be edited.
The widths of the
[Set Lines]
can be set
separately for each character.
