Typography is used to create clear hierarchies, useful organizations, and purposeful alignments which guide users through the product and experience. It is the core structure of any well-designed interface.
Typeface
Inter
Verint uses Inter, a typeface carefully crafted and designed for computer screens. As part of our font stack, as a necessary fallback for situations where Inter cannot be used, we use the industry standardised sans-serif typeface Arial. It has been carefully chosen to meet Verint's needs as a global technology company and its design principles.

Type scale
REMs are a way of setting font sizes based on the font size of the root HTML element. They also allow you to quickly scale an entire project by changing the root font size, for example at a certain media query or screen size. For a more in-depth rationale of why we have chosen to use rem units, see https://engageinteractive.co.uk/blog/em-vs-rem-vs-px.
How to calculate PX from REM
Having chosen our default root at 16 px, 1 rem = 16 px. To calculate the rem value to use from any given px size, the following calculation is used: px / 16 = rem. The table below is a quick cheat sheet for our most common rem conversions.

Typographic treatments
Font weight
Font weight is an important typographic style that can add emphasis and is used to differentiate content hierarchy. Font weight and size pairings must be carefully balanced. A bold weight will always have more emphasis than a lighter weight of the same size. However, a lighter weight can rank hierarchically higher than a bold font if the lighter weight type size is significantly larger than the bold.
Verint allows for a wide range of weights. However, only Semi-Bold, Regular, and Light should be used for product design.
Weight | Example |
|---|
Font-weight: 300 / Light | | Html macro |
|---|
<style>
@import url('https://rsms.me/inter/inter.css');
html { font-family: 'Inter' !important; }
</style>
<span style="font-family: 'Inter', arial; font-size: 32px; font-weight: 300;">Light 300</span> |
|
Font-weight: 400 / Normal | | Html macro |
|---|
<style>
@import url('https://rsms.me/inter/inter.css');
html { font-family: 'Inter' !important; }
</style>
<span style="font-family: 'Inter', arial; font-size: 32px; font-weight: 400;">Normal 400</span> |
|
Font-weight: 600 / Semi-bold | | Html macro |
|---|
<style>
@import url('https://rsms.me/inter/inter.css');
html { font-family: 'Inter' !important; }
</style>
<span style="font-family: 'Inter', arial; font-size: 32px; font-weight: 600;">Semi-bold 600</span> |

Body copy
To maximize screen real estate we recommended a smaller 14 px / 0.875 rem body copy size for a standard UI console.
Line height
Line height, traditionally known as leading, is one of several factors that directly contribute to readability and pacing of copy. Line heights are based on the size of the font itself. Ideal line heights for standard copy have a ratio of 1:1.5 (typesize : line-height). For example, a type at 16 px/1 rem would have a line-height of 1.5 rem/24 px (16 x 1.5). The exception to this rule is headings, which need less spacing and therefore have a line-height ratio of 1:1.25.
Line-height | Ratio |
|---|
Standard UI | 1:1.5 |
Headers | 1:1:25 |
