Is it possible to set the font spacing in an edit box?

I´m using the default font in my edit box by loading "asciiExt.png" and "ascii.png" and setting them with SetEditBoxFontImage() and SetEditBoxExtendedFontImage() but the font spacing is too large. Much larger than the same font with Text and Print.

I never want what I know.

I requested this a long time ago on the bug board but I don't think anything came out of it.

I use the built in default images "asciiExt.png" and "ascii.png". I don´t know where those files are since it´s the default agk font and I dont know if those come with a *.txt file along them

Btw: Im using Mac

this should be the filename
"ascii subimages.txt"
"asciiExt subimages.txt"

contains one row each char 0-255:x:y:w:h
example means char 32 (space), left top 0,0 width height 16x16
32:0:0:16:16

myself i useing one image for all chars and give it
SetEditBoxFontImage() and SetEditBoxExtendedFontImage()

Thanks Markus
