Identical line spacing for normal and bold fonts

Identical line spacing for normal and bold fonts

This may be around somewhere on the forum but I could not find anything on the matter: I realized that changing a textstyle from normal to bold will alter the line spacing. I have not experienced that in any other software and I believe this to be a bug.

Project TEMPLATE FILE

Project number 000000

If you set this up as a Revit annotation with a line break, the bold version will have a different spacing and the six zeros will not align with the string 'Project number'. I will now make the bold annotation a iota smaller and hope for the best. Eyeballing it as is custom in Revit. I found this to be true using the standard Arial font with the Version 2022.1. It may have been remedied since.

FMI_ I found with Arial, scaling the bold font size by 0.99 does the trick.

Interesting, this seems to happen with just some fonts, Arial being one of them.

We use TT Commons and it does not adjust the line spacing when bolded.

It seems to be a Revit issue as the line spacing in Microsoft Word is not affected.
