Line Height setting appears to have no effect

I'm mapping texts fields (Formidable) to a PDF that has lines for writing long answers. Because the lines are spaced a certain way, I want to adjust the line height of the text so that the text approximately goes on the lines.

In the template editor, I've tried adjusting the Line Height setting, but it doesn't appear to be taking affect. Even when I try something extreme like 30px there is no difference in the exported PDF.

Is this a bug?

Hi,

Line height feature available only for "html" elements and affecting only them at this moment.

As I understand you are using "textarea" field type. We will check the possibility to add this feature and will notify you about result.

We remain at your service.
We would really appreciate your feedback at WordPress.org!

Thank you! I appreciate it. If it helps here's an image showing the issue I'm having; it would be nice to have control over the line height for text areas. :)

We've just released an update (1.00.12) with "Line Height" option for textarea.

Keep in mind that field will be keeping "Line Height" until clicked (If not "readonly" or document not "flattened"). Unfortunately this is default behavior of PDF documents. Global "Line Height" still will not affect "Textarea". It must be set in field options.

"Generate appearance" checkbox inside "PDF" tab at "Template" also must be set. By default it's set.

Let us know please if you will face any issues with new option. Thank you.

We remain at your service.

Thank you for creating a solution so quickly!! I tested and it works. It would be convenient if there was a global option but I understand that might be more complex. Anyway, this worked for me and I'm very happy. :)
