font

The font CSS shorthand property sets all the different properties of an element’s font. Alternatively, it sets an element’s font to a system font.

Try it

As with any shorthand property, any individual value that is not specified is set to its corresponding initial value (possibly overriding values previously set using non-shorthand properties). Though not directly settable by font , the longhands font-size-adjust and font-kerning are also reset to their initial values.

Constituent properties

This property is a shorthand for the following CSS properties:

Syntax

The font property may be specified as either a single keyword, which will select a system font, or as a shorthand for various font-related properties.

If font is specified as a system keyword, it must be one of: caption , icon , menu , message-box , small-caption , status-bar .

If font is specified as a shorthand for several font-related properties, then:

  • it must include values for:
    • it may optionally include values for:
      • font-style , font-variant and font-weight must precede font-size
      • font-variant may only specify the values defined in CSS 2.1, that is normal and small-caps
      • font-stretch may only be a single keyword value.
      • line-height must immediately follow font-size , preceded by «/», like this: » 16px/3 «
      • font-family must be the last value specified.

      CSS Fonts

      Choosing the right font for your website is important!

      Font Selection is Important

      Choosing the right font has a huge impact on how the readers experience a website.

      The right font can create a strong identity for your brand.

      Using a font that is easy to read is important. The font adds value to your text. It is also important to choose the correct color and text size for the font.

      Generic Font Families

      In CSS there are five generic font families:

      1. Serif fonts have a small stroke at the edges of each letter. They create a sense of formality and elegance.
      2. Sans-serif fonts have clean lines (no small strokes attached). They create a modern and minimalistic look.
      3. Monospace fonts — here all the letters have the same fixed width. They create a mechanical look.
      4. Cursive fonts imitate human handwriting.
      5. Fantasy fonts are decorative/playful fonts.

      All the different font names belong to one of the generic font families.

      Difference Between Serif and Sans-serif Fonts

      Note: On computer screens, sans-serif fonts are considered easier to read than serif fonts.

      Some Font Examples

      Generic Font Family Examples of Font Names
      Serif Times New Roman
      Georgia
      Garamond
      Sans-serif Arial
      Verdana
      Helvetica
      Monospace Courier New
      Lucida Console
      Monaco
      Cursive Brush Script MT
      Lucida Handwriting
      Fantasy Copperplate
      Papyrus

      The CSS font-family Property

      In CSS, we use the font-family property to specify the font of a text.

      Note: If the font name is more than one word, it must be in quotation marks, like: «Times New Roman».

      Tip: The font-family property should hold several font names as a «fallback» system, to ensure maximum compatibility between browsers/operating systems. Start with the font you want, and end with a generic family (to let the browser pick a similar font in the generic family, if no other fonts are available). The font names should be separated with comma. Read more about fallback fonts in the next chapter.

      Example

      Specify some different fonts for three paragraphs:

      .p1 <
      font-family: «Times New Roman», Times, serif;
      >

      .p2 font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
      >

      .p3 font-family: «Lucida Console», «Courier New», monospace;
      >
