Practical Steps:
- Choose appropriate fonts: Select fonts that are legible, complement the design, and enhance readability.
- Set text alignment: Align text to the left, center, right, or justify to improve readability and visual balance.
- Adjust line height: Increase or decrease the vertical spacing between lines of text to improve legibility.
- Set letter spacing: Adjust the horizontal spacing between characters to improve legibility or create special effects.
- Add text decoration: Apply decorations like underlines, overlines, or strikethroughs to emphasize or highlight text.
- Use text transform: Convert text to uppercase, lowercase, or capitalize specific characters to create emphasis or improve visual appeal.
Example CSS:
body {
font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 16px;
line-height: 1.6em;
text-align: justify;
text-decoration: underline;
text-transform: capitalize;
}
Accessibility and Ease of Use:
- Use high-contrast fonts for improved visibility.
- Avoid excessive text justification, which can impair readability.
- Provide clear and descriptive text descriptions for images and other non-text elements.
- Consider using larger font sizes and line heights for enhanced readability.
- Ensure text is resizable to accommodate a range of devices and user preferences.
