  Bluebird Meadows Photographic Fundamentals #8, Leading Lines
Leading Lines are also achieved when objects in the photo seem to physically point to an item or area of interest.
In this example, three Leading Lines are at work to lead your eye from the bottom of the photo into the heart of the scene where the river seems to disappear.
A third Leading Line is the S-shaped glare from the middle of the meandering river.

 Leading - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In consumer-oriented word processing software, this concept is usually referred to as "line spacing." Leading may sometimes be confused with tracking, which refers to the horizontal spacing between letters or characters.
When type was set by hand in printing presses, slugs or strips of lead (reglets) of appropriate thicknesses were inserted between lines of type to add vertical space, to fill available space on the page.
A leading value of 20% (or a line height of 120%) of the font height is common for properly set text.

 Errorless line protection switching in asynchronous transer mode (ATM) communications systems - Patent 5285441
The line protection apparatus includes a means for determining whether or not the user data on the active line leads or lags the user data on the standby line.
A switching means connects whichever line is carrying the leading user data to the input of a variable delay unit which is capable of providing a time delay for the leading user data up to the maximum amount by which the user data is expected to lead the user data on the lagging line.
The line protection apparatus includes a means for adjusting the time delay provided by the variable delay unit so that the leading user data is retarded by an amount which reduces the lead between the user data on the active and standby lines to zero.

 RichInStyle.com - Style sheet master class: part 5 - fonts
These differences lead one to draw two conclusions: firstly that with white backgrounds one should take care not to set line heights to high, and secondly that with darker background the opposite is true.
A possible way of maximizing line height, and therefore making a page appear more attractive is through setting the background color to a rich but light color so that it is easier on the eye.
In addition, it is generally appropriate to have lower line heights on headings and table cells; in the first instance because they generally consists of fewer lines than P and LI, and in the second instance because the content does not need to appear as 'clean'.

 Photo Scrapbook by Tom Hirsch-The leading line
A leading line is some natural element in the scene that carries the viewer's eyes into the picture, toward the center of interest.
A leading line usually begins near a bottom corner of the image frame, and carries the eye diagonally into the scene toward the center of interest.
A diagonal leading line is the most dynamic, but if the line also curves, such as a curved path or stream, it adds flow and rhythm to a photograph.

 Challenge 70: Leading Lines (host: Michael Puff) Photo Gallery by CSLR Challenge at pbase.com
Leading lines are an often used technique that guide a viewer's eye through the image to the subject or an important element of the subject.
A leading line can be almost anything: perspective lines, a road, path, sidewalk, fence, river, tree line, shadows, stair rail, painted lines on an object, architectural elements, etc. Leading lines should serve the purpose to lead into, not out of, the image, and they should lead your eye toward the main subject.
While leading lines are often associated with landscape photography, I believe they can be a powerful composition tool used in abstracts, street photography, still life, almost any genre.

 Rules of Typography: Part IV
Line spacing, also called “leading,” because printers used to insert thin strips of lead between lines of type to add space, is very important not only for readability but also for appearance.
Line spacing, measured from baseline to baseline, needs to be significantly greater than this, and is something you need to worry about for the simple reason that the default settings of most word processors and page layout programs is rarely satsifactory.
Unlike body text where a baseline leading of 120% of the point size is suggested, for headlines I generally begin with solid leading, and increase or decrease it from there.

 Spacing out with your type--leading and kerning.
Two of the most commonly misunderstood and ignored elements in typography are leading, the amount of space between lines of type, and kerning, the amount of space between individual characters.
Leading, or line spacing, is almost always specified in terms of the space from one baseline to the next (the baseline is the imaginary line that the text sits on): for instance, 11/15 describes 11-point type with 15 points of space from baseline to baseline.
Unfortunately, programs usually use the largest character in a line to set the leading, so if you enlarge one character, the leading for that line differs from that of the rest of the paragraph.

 Readability: Type size, spacing, length
Line length = 30 times the size of type (20—40 picas); example: l0 pt type x 30 = 300 pts or 25 picas (300/12).
Leading (or Line Spacing or Interline Spacing or Baseline to Baseline Spacing): The amount of vertical space between lines of type.
Leading measurements are expressed as two numbers: the typeface point size followed by the baseline to baseline measurement:

A leading line can be almost anything: a road, path, sidewalk, fence, river, hedge, tree line or shadow.
Lines in a picture should lead into, not out of, the picture, and they should lead your eye toward the main subject.
Sometimes it is a matter of choosing the right angle or point of view to make leading lines lead into the picture.

 Multicell Lines: also known as squall lines
Multicell line storms consist of a line of storms with a continuous, well developed gust front at the leading edge of the line.
Multicell line storms are better known as squall lines, which is the term that we will use from here on.
Flash floods occasionally occur when the squall line decelerates or even becomes stationary, with thunderstorms moving parallel to the line and repeatedly across the same area.

 Line Height @ The Autistic Cuckoo
If we use the rule-of-thumb that the line width shouldn't exceed 70 characters (including spaces and punctuation), and if the text is left-aligned, a suitable line height for optimal readability on the web could be 1.5.
The line height that is used is the element's font size multiplied by this factor.
Line height less than one can sometimes be used in multi-line headings, but it is not recommended unless you have considerable skills in typography.

 The Thin Line of Leadership (Part One)
Even for the most masterful, leading free-willed humans often resistant to the very premise of being led is a tenuous and slippery slope.
In the case of leaders who purposely and knowingly choose to be dominating and controlling dictators over associates and God's sheep in order to build their private kingdoms, the sad record is that precious few are influenced toward repentance or change by the criticism or pleas of fellows.
This Catch-22 is among the primary factors that cause even sincere, honest, earnest, and well-intentioned leaders to cross the invisible line between legitimate and illegitimate authority, and gradually gravitate toward domination instead of discipling, lording instead of leading, and coercing instead of coaching, coaxing, and convincing.
