Increase default font size

  • Hi, what’s the cleanest way to boost the Twenty Twelve default font size for page content? Just want it slightly larger for readability.
    I don’t think I really want to change the rem base for the whole site, right?

    Thanks in advance.

    If you don’t want to change the whole site (including the width), change the individual elements. For Twenty Twelve, 1 rem = 14 px, so take your desired font size and divide by 14.

    For example, if you want to increase the font of the body to 18px, add this to your child theme’s CSS file:

    body {
	font-size: 1.286rem;
	}

    Let me know if you have any questions.

    Many thanks, Kevin Marsden. It seems to be actually a div of class entry-content that’s controlling the specific text I would like a bit more legible. I am experimenting with the child theme css.

    Kind regards.
