Does line spacing depend on font name?. I am converting HTML string to PDF using Itext but line spacing is not consistent from one font to other font in column text. I am using setLeading to set the line space but it is working for only some fonts. Basically for the same fontsize some fonts are giving large line space, but PDF taking same line space for all fonts. Hoe to fix this?. Thanks in advance.
