I believe fontgauntlet uses a fixed line-height of 1.05 of the upem.

1.line gap have doesnt work, i have changed but the font clipped

2.Set the Typo Line Gap value between 7% and 25% of upem, so that the total of all three Typographic values makes a good default line spacing.

this calculate sample: total unit per up em 2048 - 7%= 1904. that's mean typo line gap value 1904?

The latest update now allows you to test these vertical metrics through the Web Font test page.

A value between 7% and 25% of upem, where upem = 2048, means between 0.07 * 2048 and 0.25 * 2048, thus between 143 and 512 units.
