Determining the line spacing of a document

Post by garconcanadien »

Hi, I have a lined document that I want to be able to edit in either PDF Xchange Viewer or Microsoft Word whichever one is simpler. The problem I have is that I want to determine the line spacing of that document so that what I type will exactly match each line of the document and let no line of text cross over a line from the original document; is there any way to create line spacing on my computer that exactly matches that of the lined paper?

thanks for your help!

Hi garconcanadien,

I cannot speak for MS Word but in our Viewer you can visually see the size you are typing as you go and could select an appropriate font size that with a little trial and error will be close.

Failing that, I do not know of any way to specify this directly using the end user products based on the fonts you already have.
