Text properties change the text's appearance and placement, such as the line-height, text decoration, vertical-align, and text-align. The word spacing and letter spacing properties can make letters wider or squeezed more tightly next to each other. The Text-Transform property can be set to capitalize, uppercase or lowercase.

Example

<STYLE>
H1 {text-align: center;
Letter-spacing: .5em;
Background: green;
Color: yellow;
Font: normal 20pt "Nueva roman", "lithos regular"}
P {text-align: justify;
Text-indent: 8pt;
Font: 10pt/15pt "Myraid roman", "veranda"}
</STYLE>

In this Exercise you will learn to set the Text properties in a cascading style sheet.

The style specification highlighted aligns the text to the center of the page and sets the letter spacing to 5em.

The style specification highlighted sets the background and text colors.

The paragraphs are now centered and displayed in a green background with yellow color font for the text.
