Built with Less
The typographic scale is based on two LESS variables in variables.less: @baseFontSize
and @baseLineHeight
. The first is the base font-size used throughout and the second is the base line-height. We use those variables and some simple math to create the margins, paddings, and line-heights of all our type and more. Customize them and Bootstrap adapts.
Body copy
Bootstrap's global default font-size
is 14px, with a line-height
of 1.7em. This is applied to the <body>
and all paragraphs. In addition, <p>
(paragraphs) receive a bottom margin of half their line-height (9px by default).
Nullam quis risus eget urna mollis ornare vel eu leo. Cum sociis natoque penatibus et magnis dis parturient montes, nascetur ridiculus mus. Nullam id dolor id nibh ultricies vehicula.
<p>...</p>
Lead body copy
Make a paragraph stand out by adding .lead
.
Vivamus sagittis lacus vel augue laoreet rutrum faucibus dolor auctor. Duis mollis, est non commodo luctus.
<p class="lead">...</p>
Emphasis
Make use of HTML's default emphasis tags with lightweight styles.<em>
For emphasizing a snippet of text with stress
The following snippet of text is rendered as italicized text.
<em>rendered as italicized text</em>
<strong>
For emphasizing a snippet of text with important
The following snippet of text is rendered as bold text.
<strong>rendered as bold text</strong>
<small>
For de-emphasizing inline or blocks of text, use the small tag.
This line of text is meant to be treated as fine print.
<p> <small>This line of text is meant to be treated as fine print.</small> </p>
Note: Feel free to use <b>
and <i>
in HTML5. <b>
is meant to highlight words or phrases without conveying additional importance while <i>
is mostly for voice, technical terms, etc.
Notice Styles
Use the <p>
tag with .success
, .warning
, .info
or .error
classes.
Nullam quis risus eget urna mollis ornare vel eu leo. Cum sociis natoque penatibus et magnis dis parturient montes, nascetur ridiculus mus.
<p class="success">...</p>
Nullam quis risus eget urna mollis ornare vel eu leo. Cum sociis natoque penatibus et magnis dis parturient montes, nascetur ridiculus mus.

Nullam quis risus eget urna mollis ornare vel eu leo. Cum sociis natoque penatibus et magnis dis parturient montes, nascetur ridiculus mus.

Abbreviations
Stylized implementation of HTML's <abbr>
element for abbreviations and acronyms to show the expanded version on hover. Abbreviations with a title
attribute have a light dotted bottom border and a help cursor on hover, providing additional context on hover.
<abbr>
For expanded text on long hover of an abbreviation, include the title
attribute.
An abbreviation of the word attribute is attr.
<abbr title="attribute">attr</abbr>

Add .initialism

HTML is the best thing since sliced bread.

Code
Inline

.
<section>
should be wrapped as inline.
- For example, <code><section></code> should be wrapped as inline.

tags as close to the left as possible; it will render all tabs.
You may optionally add the .pre-scrollable
class which will set a max-height of 350px and provide a y-axis scrollbar.
Basic block
Use <pre>

<p>Sample text here...</p>
- <pre>
- <p>Sample text here...</p>
- </pre>
Prettify
To add colored syntax highlight to the <pre>
tag, then use the .prettyprint
class or the .prettyprint linenums
class.
- <?php /** Begin Debug **/ if ($gantry->countModules('debug')) : ?>
- <div id="rt-debug">
- <div class="rt-container">
- <?php echo $gantry->displayModules('debug','standard','standard'); ?>
