Typography Concepts

  • Serif

    A small decorative stroke added to the end of a letter's main strokes. Serif fonts (like Times New Roman) have these; sans-serif fonts don't.

  • Leading

    The vertical distance between lines of text, measured from baseline to baseline. Named after lead strips used in letterpress printing.

  • Measure

    The length of a line of text, typically 45–75 characters for optimal readability. Too long or too short reduces reading comfort.

  • Responsive Typography

    Typography that adapts to different screen sizes — using media queries, viewport units, or CSS clamp() for fluid scaling.

  • Line Height

    The CSS property controlling the distance between lines of text. Typically set to 1.5 or 150% for body text readability.

  • Readability

    How comfortably extended text can be read in longer passages — affected by font choice, size, line-height, measure, and color contrast.
