Web fonts and Google fonts
What is HTML?
HTML is the language for describing the structure of Web pages. HTML gives authors the means to:
- Publish online documents with headings, text, tables, lists, photos, etc.
- Retrieve online information via hypertext links, at the click of a button.
- Design forms for conducting transactions with remote services, for use in searching for information, making reservations, ordering products, etc.
- Include spread-sheets, video clips, sound clips, and other applications directly in their documents.
What is CSS?
CSS is the language for describing the presentation of Web pages, including colors, layout, and fonts. It allows one to adapt the presentation to different types of devices, such as large screens, small screens, or printers. CSS is independent of HTML and can be used with any XML-based markup language. The separation of HTML from CSS makes it easier to maintain sites, share style sheets across pages, and tailor pages to different environments. This is referred to as the separation of structure (or: content) from presentation.
What is web-safe fonts?- Commonly preinstalled on devices and computers. Limited options. Have no control over what users have installed.
Font face:The @font-face CSS at-rule specifies a custom font with which to display text; the font can be loaded from either a remote server or a locally-installed font on the user’s own computer. If the local() function is provided, specifying a font name to look for on the user’s computer, and the user agent finds a match, that local font is used. Otherwise, the font resource specified using the url() function is downloaded and used.
What is padding in layouts?
The CSS padding properties are used to generate space around an element’s content, inside of any defined borders.
With CSS, you have full control over the padding. There are properties for setting the padding for each side of an element (top, right, bottom, and left).
What is word spacing?
–The word-spacing property increases or decreases the white space between words.
Floats property
The float property is used for positioning and formatting content e.g. let an image float left to the text in a container.
The float property can have one of the following values:
- left – The element floats to the left of its container
- right- The element floats to the right of its container
- none – The element does not float (will be displayed just where it occurs in the text). This is default
- inherit – The element inherits the float value of its parent
