Typography and Fonts on Web Pages

Typography in web design involves the strategic use of fonts to enhance readability, accessibility, and aesthetics. Here are key considerations:

  • Font Choice: Choose web-safe fonts or use Google Fonts to ensure consistency across devices and browsers.

  • Font Size and Line Height: Maintain a legible font size and appropriate line height to ensure comfortable reading.

  • Contrast: Ensure sufficient contrast between text and background for readability.

  • Hierarchy: Use different font weights and sizes to establish a clear hierarchy and guide the reader’s eye.

  • Responsive Design: Ensure your typography adjusts well on different screen sizes to maintain readability.

Remember, effective typography enhances user experience and communicates the brand's voice effectively.

Using a Google Font

To utilize a Google Font in your web design, include the corresponding link in the <head> section of your HTML file:

<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Roboto:wght@400;700&display=swap" rel="stylesheet">

Then, apply the font in your CSS:

body {
    font-family: 'Roboto', sans-serif;
}
