Good type starts here.

TRY IT WITH A REAL TASK

Example: 24px at a 16px root

With a 16px root, 24 ÷ 16 = 1.5rem. If the parent is 20px, the same 24px is 1.2em. Changing the parent affects EM; changing the root affects REM.

font-size: 1.5rem; /* 24px at a 16px root */

How to use it

  1. Enter a size and choose PX, REM or EM.
  2. Set the root size for REM and the parent size for EM.
  3. Compare the values and copy the CSS.

A few useful answers.

Is this font tool free to use?

Yes. This FontReady tool is free to use and does not require a FontReady account. A free tool does not grant a licence to the font you choose; your original font licence still applies.

How is PX converted to REM?

Divide the pixel value by the root font size. At a 16px root, 24px is 1.5rem. Change the root value here to match your website.

What is the difference between REM and EM?

For font-size, REM refers to the root element’s font size; EM refers to the parent element’s font size. Other EM-based properties can refer to the current element’s size.

Does this calculator resize my font file?

No. It calculates CSS sizes and changes the preview. It does not modify a font file.
