ASCII art breaks because of font options.
Is there a way I can change the spacing between lines and/or font for .nfo/.ini files etc..? If I check the styler configurator it doesn't have those options available.

The font face has, obviously, as it contains line spacing information.
The suported ode page is important as it is what ensures that ASCII art is rendered correctly, as well as any accened letters.
An usual problem related with line spacing is that some default style (usually about braces) is taller than others for readability reasons, and the line height is computed taking into account all heights of defined styles. Please review these options - or search the forum, as this question has been asked befoore.

Do you use Dos Style as highlighter for the .nfo extension? If not, do add it in the User Ext field which appears on the Styler Configurator tab when selecting Dos Style.

The default ext for Dos Style is nfo. I can't change that. And for Dos Style I can only change the bg/fg colors, not the font and certainly not line spacing

What you can do is this:
1/ find a different font which support the OEM code page. It should be a TrueType font.
2/ backup linedraw.ttf in Notepad++'s installation folder
3/ copy your font file as a replacement, renaming it to linedraw.ttf
4/ now things should look more to your liking.

I've tried and it didn't do anything interesting. I don't see what the font type has to do with the formatting
