Typography

Material Design's text sizes and styles were developed to balance content density and reading comfort under typical usage conditions.

MDC Typography is a foundational module that applies these styles to MDC Web components. The typographic styles in this module are derived from thirteen styles:

Headline 1
Headline 2
Headline 3
Headline 4
Headline 5
Headline 6
Subtitle 1
Subtitle 2
Body 1
Body 2
Caption
Button
Overline

Design & API Documentation

Installation

npm install @limetech/mdc-typography

Basic Usage

HTML Structure

We recommend using Roboto from Google Fonts:

<head>
  <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:300,400,500" rel="stylesheet">
</head>
<body class="mdc-typography">
  <h1 class="mdc-typography--headline1">Big header</h1>
</body>

Styles

@import "@limetech/mdc-typography/mdc-typography";

Style Customization

CSS Classes

Some components have a set typographic style. For example, a raised MDC Card uses Body 1, Body 2, and Headline styles.

If you want to set the typographic style of an element, which is not a Material Design component, you can apply the following CSS classes.

CSS Class | Description --- | --- mdc-typography | Sets the font to Roboto mdc-typography--headline1 | Sets font properties as Headline 1 mdc-typography--headline2 | Sets font properties as Headline 2 mdc-typography--headline3 | Sets font properties as Headline 3 mdc-typography--headline4 | Sets font properties as Headline 4 mdc-typography--headline5 | Sets font properties as Headline 5 mdc-typography--headline6 | Sets font properties as Headline 6 mdc-typography--subtitle1 | Sets font properties as Subtitle 1 mdc-typography--subtitle2 | Sets font properties as Subtitle 2 mdc-typography--body1 | Sets font properties as Body 1 mdc-typography--body2 | Sets font properties as Body 2 mdc-typography--caption | Sets font properties as Caption mdc-typography--button | Sets font properties as Button mdc-typography--overline | Sets font properties as Overline

Sass Variables and Mixins

Mixin | Description --- | --- mdc-typography-base | Sets the font to Roboto mdc-typography($style) | Applies one of the typography styles, including setting the font to Roboto mdc-typography-overflow-ellipsis | Truncates overflow text to one line with an ellipsis mdc-typography-baseline-top($distance) | Sets the baseline height of a text element from top. mdc-typography-baseline-bottom($distance) | Sets the distance from text baseline to bottom. This mixin should be combined with mdc-typography-baseline-top when setting baseline distance to following text element.

A note about mdc-typography-overflow-ellipsis, mdc-typography-overflow-ellipsis should only be used if the element is display: block or display: inline-block.

`$style` Values

These styles can be used as the $style argument for the mdc-typography mixin.

headline1
headline2
headline3
headline4
headline5
headline6
subtitle1
subtitle2
body1
body2
caption
button
overline

Overriding Styles

All styles can be overridden using Sass global variables before the component is imported by setting a global variable named $mdc-typography-styles-{style}. The variable should be assigned a map that contains all the properties you want to override for a particular style.

Example: Overriding the button font-size and text-transform properties.

$mdc-typography-styles-button: (
  font-size: 1rem,
  text-transform: none,
);

@import "@limetech/mdc-button/mdc-button";

Example: Overriding the global font-family property.

$mdc-typography-font-family: unquote("Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif");

...
@import ...

Example: Overriding the font-family property for headline1 and font-family and font-size for headline2.

$mdc-typography-styles-headline1: (
  font-family: unquote("Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif")
);
$mdc-typography-styles-headline2: (
  font-family: unquote("Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"),
  font-size: 3.25rem
);

...
@import ...
