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 font of the same size. However, a lighter weight font 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, Light should be used for product design.
| Weight | Example |
|---|---|
| Font-weight: 300 / Light | |
| Font-weight: 400 / Normal | |
| Font-weight: 600 / Semi-bold |
Body copy
To maximize screen real estate we recommended a smaller 12px / 0.75rem 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 16px/1rem would have a line-height of 1.5rem/24px (16 x 1.5). The exception to this rule are 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 |
