Leading
The vertical spacing between lines of text, measured from baseline to baseline and also known as line-height in CSS. Proper leading improves readability—too tight feels cramped while too loose breaks visual connection between lines. Generally, set leading between 1.4 and 1.6 times the font size for body text.
Letter Spacing
Typography
The uniform adjustment of space between all characters in a word or block of text, also called tracking. Increased letter spacing can improve readability for uppercase text and small sizes. Avoid negative letter spacing in body text as it impairs readability.
Line Height
Typography
The vertical space allocated to each line of text, affecting readability and overall text block appearance. Proper line height prevents cramped or overly loose text—typically 1.4-1.6 for body copy. Adjust line height proportionally with font size for consistent rhythm.
Text balance
Typography
In Framer, balanced text can make headlines and supporting copy feel more intentional across screen sizes by reducing awkward single-word lines.
