What is leading? What is its purpose? Explain “set solid” in terms of leading. Is set solid a good choice for body text on a Web page? Why or why not?

What will be an ideal response?


Leading is the addition of vertical space between lines of type. Its purpose is to increase legibility. The term “set solid” means that there is no leading between lines of type. Text on the Web is difficult to read due to the limited resolution. Removing the interline spacing would make it even harder.
