In the Spacing area, in the Character spacing exactly field, specify the
value n that each character occupies.
The value n is defined as the distance in number of points measured from
the start of one character to the start of the next. When you change the
character spacing, you change only the spacing between adjacent
characters, not the font size of the characters.
For example, if you specify a 14-point font with a character spacing of 14
points, each character will remain as a 14-point font size, occupying a
space that is 14 points wide.
