Hmm... The default config file skeleton used to by faxaddmodem to build
the device config files does include it:

TagLineFont:            etc/lutRS18.pcf # tag line font


To make increase the distance, you have to edit the source, something
like:

Change the MARGIN_TOP, and recompile.  Note that I've never had to try a
value greater than 2.  A quick look a the code seems to imply that it
should propperly work...

Hm.. Maybe we should make this configurable?  Has it really been a
problem for others?

No problem...
