FontFace: lineGapOverride property

Limited availability

This feature is not Baseline because it does not work in some of the most widely-used browsers.

Note: This feature is available in Web Workers.

The lineGapOverride property of the FontFace interface returns and sets the value of the line-gap-override descriptor. The possible values are normal, indicating that the metric used should be obtained from the font file, or a percentage.

Value

A string.

Examples

js
let fontFace = new FontFace(
  "Roboto",
  "url(https://fonts.example.com/roboto.woff2)",
  { lineGapOverride: "90%" },
);
console.log(fontFace.lineGapOverride); // 90%
fontFace.lineGapOverride = "normal";
console.log(fontFace.lineGapOverride); // 'normal'
