# XSL-FO line-height Property

## Definition and Usage

CSS2 definition:

If the line-height property is set on a block-level element, it specifies the minimal height of each generated inline box.

If the line-height property is set on an inline-level element, it specifies the exact height of each box generated by the element.

XSL modifications:

In XSL the line-height property is used to determine the half-leading trait.
