Design Tips: February 2008 Archives

If you are using a default ProStores template set (Store Version) and you want to change the font sizes this display will help. Your font size choices in the Design Settings are presented as keyword sizes: Very Small, Small, Medium Small, Medium, Medium Large, Large and Very Large. Here is a visual representation of each.

Very Small (10px)

Small (14px)

Medium Small (16px)

Medium (18px)

Medium Large (24px)

Large (32px)

Very Large (48px)

In CSS, there is a font size attribute called "Absolute-size" - also referred to as using a keyword to specify font size. Though similar, they are slightly different than the choices you have in ProStores. Here is a visual example of font sizes specified using keywords:

Absolute size - xx-small

Absolute size - x-small

Absolute size - small

Absolute size - medium

Absolute size - large

Absolute size - x-large

Absolute size - xx-large

In legacy styles used for HTML you will find yet another similarity, but still different.

Size 2

Size 3

Size 4

Size 6
