About

{{font}} is used to define text styles, for example, size and color. It can also be used to inject CSS. This can be useful when needed to change "I" in Arial to "I" in Times New Roman, since in Arial, uppercase "I" looks the same as lowercase "L".

Use

{{font|TEXT(or「text=TEXT」)|font=FONT|size=SIZE(px/em/pt/%|color=COLOR|bgcolor=BACKGROUND COLOR|css=CSS}}

Parameter list

text
The text to be changed.
font
The text's font.
A list of fonts supported by Wikipedia can be found here: Wikipedia:Typography#Available fonts.
size
The size of the text. Possible unit include px, em, pt, %.
color
The color of the text.
