In diagram, you can see relative position of character, in
this case M, within character space field. Character space
field is set indirectly by c s i z s t a t e m e n t , s i n c e c h a r a c t e r
space height is twice the character's height and character
space width is 1-1/2 times the character's width. Spaces
a b o v e and below character become spacing between lines and
characters.
When you specify height of character in csiz s t a t e m e n t , y o u
should specify character height and not height of character
