Variable cairo_font_extents_t.height
the recommended vertical distance between baselines when
setting consecutive lines of text with the font. This
is greater than @ascent
+@descent
by a
quantity known as the line spacing
or external leading. When space
is at a premium, most fonts can be set with only
a distance of @ascent
+@descent
between lines.
