CSS Fonts

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. Choosing a font that is easy to read is important. It is also important to choose a good color and size for your font.

The font-family property should hold several font names as a "fallback" system. If the browser does not support the first font, it tries the next font. The font names should be separated with a comma.

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

In CSS, there are five generic font families:

• have a small stroke at the edges of each letter. They create a sense of formality and elegance.

• have clean lines (no small strokes attached). They create a modern and minimalistic look.

• here all the letters have the same fixed width. They create a mechanical look.

• imitate human handwriting.

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