text box with 85% line spacing with highlighting
Here is a clip from <span class=""><a href="http://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=159871" name="attach_159871" title="Example showing descenders getting clipped">attachment 159871</a> <a href="http://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=159871&action=edit" title="Example showing descenders getting clipped">[details]</a></span> with font corrected to Liberation Sans
(since Barlow Condensed was unavailable and no subset) but still 85%
proportional line space for the Paragraph. I've applied three runs of
highlighting differing colors, extra spaces added to shift the last line.
Note the highlight is applied in text run order, i.e. the first line is under
the second is under the third. Clipping occurs because the highlight is not
transparent nor modified to for the overlapping text runs.
This is all correct, if you need the reduced "leading" aka line spacing, and
still needed highlighting (rather than the adequate text box fill) you would
need a different font. A font with reduced line height relative to point
size--either with its internal leading, or reduced line height, referred to in
type setting as a Bastard font for its non-standard sizing (larger or smaller
font in a given point size).</pre>
