- **Keywords:** font pairing, typography, font preview, CSS font stack

## Overview

The card intentionally uses the supplied family names as CSS stacks instead of fetching font binaries. That makes the result deterministic and works offline; the final appearance depends on fonts installed or loaded by the host page. Use quoted family names and a generic fallback such as serif, sans-serif, or system-ui.

## Inputs

- **Heading font stack** (text): Fraunces, Georgia, serif
- **Body font stack** (text): Inter, system-ui, sans-serif
- **Sample text** (textarea): A thoughtful interface starts with readable type.
- **Character set** (select)
- **Heading size (px)** (number)
- **Body size (px)** (number)
- **Heading weight** (number)
- **Body weight** (number)
- **Heading line height** (number)
- **Body line height** (number)

## When to use

- Compare serif headings with sans-serif body text before choosing a typography system.
- Check whether a font pairing displays a specific character set, such as Latin or Cyrillic.
- Test readable sizes, weights, and line heights with realistic interface or editorial copy.

## How it works

- Enter a heading font stack and a body font stack, including generic fallbacks such as serif, sans-serif, or system-ui.
- Add sample text and select a character set for the preview.
- Adjust heading and body sizes, weights, and line heights within the available controls.
- Generate an HTML preview that uses the supplied names as CSS font stacks.

## Use cases

- Designers comparing editorial heading and body typography.
- Product teams checking font coverage for multilingual interfaces.
- Developers testing CSS font stacks, sizing, weights, and line heights with real copy.

### What does the tool output?

The tool outputs an HTML font pairing preview.

### Which font stack format should I use?

Use family names followed by a generic fallback, such as "Inter, system-ui, sans-serif".

### Can I preview different character sets?

Yes. You can select Latin, Cyrillic, Greek, Chinese, Arabic, or Devanagari samples.

### Will the preview look the same on every device?

Not necessarily. The appearance depends on fonts installed or loaded by the host page.
