Description
The SVG_SET_TEXT_LETTER_SPACING command is used to modify the letter spacing for the text object designated by svgObject in addition to the spacing due to the ‘kerning’ property. If svgObject is not an SVG text object, an error is generated.
The optional unit parameter is used to specify the unit of the spacing value. The default value is “%”.
If spacing is -1, the spacing value is set to ‘normal’.
