Typography
Bootstrap includes simple and easily customized typography across the project. In addition to the standard headings, body text, and lists, utility classes are also included.
Headings
All HTML headings, <h1>
through <h6>
, are available. .h1
through .h6
classes are also available, for when you want to match the font styling of a heading but still want your text to be displayed inline.

{% endhighlight %}Body copy
Bootstrap's base text is sized with global font-size: 16px;
and line-height: 1.5;
. This is applied to the <body>
and all paragraphs.
{% example html %}
Nullam quis risus eget urna mollis ornare vel eu leo. Cum sociis natoque penatibus et magnis dis parturient montes, nascetur ridiculus mus. Nullam id dolor id nibh ultricies vehicula.
Cum sociis natoque penatibus et magnis dis parturient montes, nascetur ridiculus mus. Donec ullamcorper nulla non metus auctor fringilla. Duis mollis, est non commodo luctus, nisi erat porttitor ligula, eget lacinia odio sem nec elit. Donec ullamcorper nulla non metus auctor fringilla.
Maecenas sed diam eget risus varius blandit sit amet non magna. Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus. Duis mollis, est non commodo luctus, nisi erat porttitor ligula, eget lacinia odio sem nec elit.
{% endexample %}Lead
Make a paragraph stand out by adding .lead
.
{% example html %}
Vivamus sagittis lacus vel augue laoreet rutrum faucibus dolor auctor. Duis mollis, est non commodo luctus.
{% endexample %}Inline text elements
Styling for all the common inline HTML5 elements.
{% example html %}
You can use the mark tag to highlight text.
This line of text is meant to be treated as deleted text.
This line of text is meant to be treated as no longer accurate.
This line of text is meant to be treated as an addition to the document.
This line of text will render as underlined
This line of text is meant to be treated as fine print.
This line rendered as bold text.
This line rendered as italicized text.
{% endexample %}Alternate elements
Feel free to use <b>
and <i>
in HTML5. <b>
is meant to highlight words or phrases without conveying additional importance while <i>
is mostly for voice, technical terms, etc.
Alignment classes
Easily realign text to components with text alignment classes.
{% example html %}
Left aligned text.
Center aligned text.
Right aligned text.
Justified text.
No wrap text.
{% endexample %}Transformation classes
Transform text in components with text capitalization classes.
{% example html %}
Lowercased text.
Uppercased text.
Capitalized text.
{% endexample %}Abbreviations
Stylized implementation of HTML's <abbr>
element for abbreviations and acronyms to show the expanded version on hover. Abbreviations with a title
attribute have a light dotted bottom border and a help cursor on hover, providing additional context on hover.
Basic abbreviation
For expanded text on long hover of an abbreviation, include the title
attribute with the <abbr>
element.
{% example html %} attr {% endexample %}
Initialism
Add .initialism
to an abbreviation for a slightly smaller font-size.
{% example html %} HTML {% endexample %}
Address
Present contact information for the nearest ancestor or the entire body of work. Preserve formatting by ending all lines with <br>
.
{% example html %}
Twitter, Inc.795 Folsom Ave, Suite 600
San Francisco, CA 94107
P: (123) 456-7890 Full Name
first.last@example.com {% endexample %}
Blockquotes
For quoting blocks of content from another source within your document.
Default blockquote
Wrap <blockquote>
around any HTML as the quote. For straight quotes, we recommend a <p>
.
{% example html %}
{% endexample %}Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Integer posuere erat a ante.
Blockquote options
Style and content changes for simple variations on a standard <blockquote>
.
Naming a source
Add a <footer>
for identifying the source. Wrap the name of the source work in <cite>
.
{% example html %}
{% endexample %}Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Integer posuere erat a ante.
Someone famous in Source Title
Reverse layout
Add .blockquote-reverse
for a blockquote with right-aligned content.
{% example html %}
{% endexample %}Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Integer posuere erat a ante.
Someone famous in Source Title
Lists
Unordered
A list of items in which the order does not explicitly matter.
{% example html %}
- Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
- Nulla volutpat aliquam velit
- Phasellus iaculis neque
- Purus sodales ultricies
- Vestibulum laoreet porttitor sem
- Ac tristique libero volutpat at
- Faucibus porta lacus fringilla vel
- Aenean sit amet erat nunc
- Eget porttitor lorem
Ordered
A list of items in which the order does explicitly matter.
{% example html %}
- Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
- Nulla volutpat aliquam velit
- Phasellus iaculis neque
- Purus sodales ultricies
- Vestibulum laoreet porttitor sem
- Ac tristique libero volutpat at
- Faucibus porta lacus fringilla vel
- Aenean sit amet erat nunc
- Eget porttitor lorem
Unstyled
Remove the default list-style
and left margin on list items (immediate children only). This only applies to immediate children list items, meaning you will need to add the class for any nested lists as well.
{% example html %}
- Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
- Consectetur adipiscing elit
- Integer molestie lorem at massa
- Facilisis in pretium nisl aliquet
- Nulla volutpat aliquam velit
- Phasellus iaculis neque
- Purus sodales ultricies
- Vestibulum laoreet porttitor sem
- Ac tristique libero volutpat at
- Faucibus porta lacus fringilla vel
- Aenean sit amet erat nunc
- Eget porttitor lorem
Inline
Place all list items on a single line with `display: inline-block; and some light padding.
{% example html %}
- Lorem ipsum
- Phasellus iaculis
- Nulla volutpat
Description
A list of terms with their associated descriptions.
{% example html %}
- Description lists
- A description list is perfect for defining terms.
- Euismod
- Vestibulum id ligula porta felis euismod semper eget lacinia odio sem nec elit.
- Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus.
- Malesuada porta
- Etiam porta sem malesuada magna mollis euismod.
Horizontal description
Make terms and descriptions in <dl>
line up side-by-side. Starts off stacked like default <dl>
s, but when the navbar expands, so do these.
{% example html %}
- Description lists
- A description list is perfect for defining terms.
- Euismod
- Vestibulum id ligula porta felis euismod semper eget lacinia odio sem nec elit.
- Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus.
- Malesuada porta
- Etiam porta sem malesuada magna mollis euismod.
- Felis euismod semper eget lacinia
- Fusce dapibus, tellus ac cursus commodo, tortor mauris condimentum nibh, ut fermentum massa justo sit amet risus.
Auto-truncating
Horizontal description lists will truncate terms that are too long to fit in the left column with text-overflow
. In narrower viewports, they will change to the default stacked layout.
