Help:Font size templates

All Wikisource size templates are relative to the default size. There are two kinds of sizing template: inline and block templates. Inline templates are suitable for use within a paragraph, but can't handle paragraph breaks, and do not adjust line spacing. Block templates can handle paragraph breaks, and adjust line spacing, but are not suitable for use within a paragraph, as they will cause a paragraph break.

Font size definition by relative differences using words

Please note that none of these fonts have proportional line height to the font size. Line height is only relevant with fonts smaller than 100%. For these, see:Fonts smaller than 100% with proportional line heights
