CSS Type Attributes
Type Setting Description
Font Specifies the font or a collection of fonts, known as a font family. You can edit the font
list by selecting Edit Font List from the drop-down list. (This sequence opens the Edit
Font List dialog box, as described in Chapter 8.)
Size Selects a size for the selected font. If you enter a value, you can then select the
measurement system in the adjacent text box (the default is pixels). The relative sizes,
such as small, medium, and large, are set relative to the parent element. Values can be
selected from the drop-down list or entered by hand.
Style Specifies a normal, oblique, or italic attribute for the font. An oblique font may have
been generated in the browser by electronically slanting a normal font.
Line Height Sets the line height of the line (known as leading in traditional layout). Typically, line
height is a point or two more than the font size, although you can set the line height to
be the same as or smaller than the font size for an overlapping effect.
