How to Check Font Size on Any Website

Knowing the exact font size used on a website helps you maintain design consistency and improve readability. Here's how to check font sizes accurately.

1

Use Font Finder for Instant Size Detection

With Font Finder installed, simply hover over any text element to see its font size in pixels. It reads the computed CSS value, so you always get the actual rendered size, not just what's in the stylesheet.

2

Inspect with Developer Tools

Right-click the text and select 'Inspect'. In the Computed tab, search for 'font-size' to see the final computed value. This accounts for inheritance, relative units (em, rem), and responsive breakpoints.

3

Understand Relative vs Absolute Units

Websites may define font sizes in px, em, rem, vw, or percentages. Browser DevTools and Font Finder always show the computed pixel value, which is what the user actually sees regardless of the CSS unit used.
