Aspose.PDF 10.3 - Set line height in HtmlFragment

Aspose.PDF Product Family
1

I am trying to use the HtmlFragment class to set the font style for my PDF document. However, I am having trouble getting the line-height CSS property to work as expected. I’ve noticed that if I adjust the line-height, it will only adjust spacing right after a bolded line for some reason. What is the correct syntax for using the line height value in a way the CSS parser will understand? The reason I started playing with the line height is because I noticed blank lines in my PDF document were getting squashed to a much shorter height than non-blank lines.


var html = "<font style="font-family:courier; font-size:10pt; line-height:20px “>” + htmlBody + “”;

Hi Chris,


Thanks for contacting support.

Can you please share some complete HTML which can help us in replicating the issue in our environment. We are sorry for this inconvenience.

Sure, I have attached the test HTML here. Opening this HTML in IE shows the correct line spacing for blank lines, but when Aspose renders the PDF the blank lines almost completely disappear.


Below is the snippet I am using to add this attached html to the Aspose.PDF.Document object.

var page = document.Pages.Add();

var html = ConvertToHtml(pageText); // this would return the HTML attached here

var fragment = new HtmlFragment(html);

page.Paragraphs.Add(fragment);
