Or default to the user's choice of font family in the browser. On 28/11/2019 06:01, Dave Fisher wrote: Reading glasses will enlarge things for many of us.

Reading glasses will enlarge things for many of us. I’m certainly in favor a larger font, but please keep it serifed.

Re: Font size on incubator site too small?
The problem might just be that pixels are getting smaller.

Hi, The move in general is to larger fonts: https://blog.marvelapp.com/body-text-small/ https://learnui.design/blog/mobile-desktop-website-font-size-guidelines.html https://designshack.net/articles/typography/is-your-website-font-size-too-small/ Thanks, Justin - To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
Re: Font size on incubator site too small?
I think the font size is a bit small. But... I never thought about until you said something. - Josh On Wed, Nov 27, 2019 at 5:15 PM Justin Mclean wrote: > Hi, > > Is it just my old eyes or do other people also find the font size too > small on the incubator site?

Font size on incubator site too small?
Hi, Is it just my old eyes or do other people also find the font size too small on the incubator site? While it does scale well and easy for a user to increase the size, have we set the default too small? This may of course depend on platform and browser use and I’ve not done any exhaustive checking, as the measurement is in px that may be the issue. The body text seem to be set to 14px, (which is 10.5pt and that should be in pt or ems not px) and 12pt (16px) is generally recommended as a minimum size.
