And here LibreOffice is surely wrong. Results of some measuring for "Liberation
Serif" 12pt:
Line spacing at 100% (="single") is 0.49cm
Line spacing at 120% is 0.58cm; 0.49cm*1.2=0,588cm
Line spacing at 200% is 0.97cm; 0.49cm*2 =0.98cm
Obviously LibreOffice takes the line spacing "single" as reference for its
percent calculation.
If I measure from top "h" to down "p", I get 0.39cm.
If I measure the width of "m", I get 0,326cm.
Taking that as "font size", makes "single" line spacing having a leading
included, as RGB has written.
I get similar results for "Palatino Linotype" 12pt:
Line spacing at 100% is 0.57cm
Line spacing at 120% is 0.68cm; 0.57cm*1.2=0,684cm
The "h" to "p" distance is here 0.42cm and the width of "m" is 0.371cm.
The line spacing is set in a fo:line-height attribute. The percentage value of
it references the attribute "font-size" of CSS. But I'm not sure, how CSS
measures "font-size".
I support to set line space to "single" in style "Text body".</pre>
