Embedded padding/margin in fonts

Question

It seems that all fonts have some sort of embedded padding or margin. By setting:

margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;

You never get what you want. D

Answer 1

After looking at the html source of a html document found out that after the normal margin/padding added by all the browsers, chrome by default adds its own webkit's margin/padding properties.

-webkit-margin-before: 1em;
-webkit-margin-after: 1em;
-webkit-margin-start: 0px;
-webkit-margin-end: 0px;

Solution is instead of normal

*{
margin:0;
padding:0;
}

Append the style with

*{
margin:0;
padding:0;
-webkit-margin-before:0;    
-webkit-margin-after:0;
}

As -webkit-margin-start and -webkit-margin-end are already set to 0px, there is no use of setting them in here.

Tell me if that works! :)
