3) Specify the dimension of the character relative to the baseline
character size (in percentage).
The amount by which the text is raised or lowered can be set to
automatic by selecting Automatic.
Figure 37: Setting the character position attributes
Two more position attributes can be set on this page:
• The (width) scaling of the text, which specifies the percentage of
the font width by which to compress or expand the individual
characters of the selected text.
• The spacing between the characters of the font, which can be
defined in number of points. Selecting the Pair kerning
checkbox causes OOo to automatically adjust the spacing
between certain pairs of characters to visually improve the
appearance. For example, when writing a V followed by an A (VA)
the spacing between the two letters is reduced (strong kerning)
as can be easily seen when compared with, say, VS which is not a
kerning pair.
