Have you tried using margin instead?

Hi All,
I'm thinking this should be a quick one because I'm pretty useless with
CSS...
I know this will sound strange, but I don't have control over the whole
HTML/CSS of the page.
What I /do/ have is control over a piece of text that is displayed which
I want there to be some padding around so I did this:
<font style="padding: 20px">Hello World</font>
But it only pushes the text to the left and doesn't add space to the top
or the bottom. This:
<font style="padding-bottom: 20px">Hello World</font>
does nothing unfortunately.
Am I using this totally the wrong way? (probably!) Can I use something
else to fudge the same result?
P.S. Tested in FF and IE.
Thanks in advance,
Doug
