Hello,

when looking in the samples, I find the Graphics sample, where the font is measured. There is a gap above the text, that is still counted as height of the font, though nothing is printed there. Is there a way to determine the real height of the font?

I need to place other text directly above, so knowing the height is quite essential for me.

Many thanks in advance

regards,
Philip

Hi!
Fonts have an "internal leading" (more information here).

I'm not sure if this is the problem here, but I hope it helps.
