CSS: Italic font
Italic text is often used to emphasize quotations or terms. In contrast to changing thickness, italics allow you to emphasize a section of the text, but not highlight it so that it is immediately more conspicuous.
To change the font style, use the font-style
property, which can take one of these values:
normal
- normal text output.italic
- italic styleoblique
- italic style
Text with normal font style
Text with italic font
Text with oblique font
Note that the text with a value of italic
and text with the value set to oblique
may look exactly the same. So what's the point here? The italic
value looks for a special italic version of the font, while oblique
merely systematically tilts the characters in the text. Not all fonts have a separate version for italic, so visually, both values will look the same.
Use italic
to create italics - this is the most common option
<p class="italic">Italic text</p>
.italic {
font-style: italic;
}
Italic text
