NOTE Exact spacing is recommended when you use MTEXT to create a table. Use
a smaller text height than the specified line spacing to ensure that text does not
overlap.
At Least Adjusts lines of text automatically based on the height of the largest
character in the line. When At Least is selected, lines of text with taller
characters have added space between lines.
Distance Sets the line spacing to an absolute value measured in drawing units.
Valid values must be between 0.0833 (0.25x) and 1.3333 (4x).
Exactly Forces the line spacing to be the same for all lines of text in the
multiline text object. Spacing is based on the text height of the object or text
style.
Spacing Factor Sets the line spacing to a multiple of single-line spacing.
Single spacing is 1.66 times the height of the text characters. You can enter a
spacing factor as a number followed by x to indicate a multiple of single
spacing. For example, specify single spacing by entering 1x, or specify double
spacing by entering 2x.
Rotation
Specifies the rotation angle of the text boundary.
Specify rotation angle.
If you use the pointing device to specify a point, the rotation angle is
determined by the angle between the X axis and the line defined by the most
recently entered point (default 0,0,0) and the specified point.
