This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@capsizecss/metrics) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

Capsize

@capsizecss/metrics

Font metrics library for system and Google fonts.

npm install @capsizecss/metrics

Usage

Import the metrics for your chosen font to pass them directly into capsize.

import { createStyleObject } from '@capsizecss/core';
import arialMetrics from '@capsizecss/metrics/arial';

const capsizeStyles = createStyleObject({
  fontSize: 16,
  leading: 24,
  fontMetrics: arialMetrics,
});

In addition to common system fonts, Google fonts are also supported.

import { createStyleObject } from '@capsizecss/core';
import lobsterMetrics from '@capsizecss/metrics/lobster';

const capsizeStyles = createStyleObject({
  fontSize: 16,
  leading: 24,
  fontMetrics: lobsterMetrics,
});

Font metrics

The font metrics object returned contains the following properties if available:

Property Type Description
familyName string Font family name as authored by font creator
capHeight number The height of capital letters above the baseline
ascent number The height of the ascenders above baseline
descent number The descent of the descenders below baseline
lineGap number The amount of space included between lines
unitsPerEm number The size of the font’s internal coordinate grid
xHeight number The height of lower case letters above the baseline
