When a line feed is made after setting the line spacing
with
this
command, the reference point for positioning is the bottom edge of the
immediately preceding line space.
This command changes the character baseline as well as the line
spacing. The baseline is set at the point that is
3/4ths
of the distance
from the top edge of the line space to the bottom edge.
If the line spacing is changed in the middle of a line the characters on
that line may not align properly.
