Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Template to aid switching the font-size used for a text string.

Syntax

{{resize|N|text}}  or  {{resize|text}}
N specifies a size, such as "90%", "1.2em", etc. For the default case (the second above), N is set to "90%".
If the text happens to contain an equality sign "=", specify {{resize|N|2=text}} or {{resize|1=text}}.

Examples

{{resize|1.2em|This text is 0.2em larger than normal}}	This text is 0.2em larger than normal
{{resize|80%|This text is 80% normal size}}	This text is 80% normal size
{{resize|This text defaults to 90% normal size}}	This text defaults to 90% normal size

Redirects

• {{smaller|...}} instead of {{resize|90%|...}}.
• {{small|...}} instead of {{resize|85%|...}}. An alternative to <small>...</small>.
• {{larger|...}} instead of {{resize|110%|...}}.
• {{big|...}} instead of {{resize|115%|...}}. An alternative to <big>...</big>.
• {{large|...}}, equivalent to <span style="font-size:large;">...</span>.
