Text spacing values

Hi There,

Is there a way to find the leading value of each line of text in an area text box (assuming the leading has been set differently on each line)?

In the same line of thinking, I would also like to determine the spacing before and after each paragraph...

Thanks in advance!

You can get these character and paragraph values :

leading
number (double)

The amount of space between two lines of text, in points.

spaceAfter

number (double)

Spacing after paragraph in points.

spaceBefore

number (double)

Spacing before paragraph in points.

Thanks for the reply.

What I am really stuck with is how to test each line for these or any other values so I can put them all into a variable list...

I am new to scripting in illustrator, sorry if this is obvious!
