Does anybody else excluding Paul know what negative fonts sizes mean?
I admit a little explenation would help since it is not so trivial.
A positive fontsize is the size of a font in points
A negative fontsize is the size of a font in points including the
internal leading at the top of the line
For fontheights it is the opposite since the height and size are related
like:
fontsize = -fontheight * 72/pixelsperinch
This seems not to be a general concept (Windows only?). While searching
for negative font sizes on the web I found this:
http://cfsearching.blogspot.com/2008/03/imagedrawtext-negative-font-sizes-give.html
which shows a completely different effect when using negative font sizes.
