Question

I want to calculate actual height of the text, but the AI is giving the text height using the bounding box dimensions.

Please help me to calculate actual height of text!!

Thanks

This is not possible with SVG. You might have to use a (hidden) <canvas> element, draw the text there and check what pixels were colored. Have e.g. a look at the simple contextBoundingBox() function by Phrogz.

Added link to a canvas based function. I didn't copy it here because it's not mine - it's @Phrogz – Thomas W May 08 '14 at 16:44
