letter-spacing

3 tags 1 category

The letter-spacing CSS property sets the spacing between text characters. This value is added to the natural spacing between characters while rendering the text. Positive values of letter-spacing spread characters further apart, while negative values of letter-spacing bring characters closer together.

Values: This property is specified as a single value from the following list:

Values: normal The normal letter spacing for the current font. Unlike a value of 0, this keyword allows the user agent to alter the space between characters in order to justify text. <length-percentage> Specifies extra inter-character space in addition to the default space between characters. While values can be negative, these may be constrained to implementation-specific limits. User agents may not further increase or decrease the inter-character space in order to justify text.

Syntax example: letter-spacing: normal;
