set the printTextHeight to lineHeight

# Description

In HyperCard, the printTextHeight property specifies the vertical spacing of printed text. In LiveCode, only cards can be printed, and the vertical spacing of text on the card is determined by the card layout and the properties of its objects.

By default, the value of printTextHeight is 18. A handler can set the property, but the new setting has no effect.
