Wide, but not too wide lines

To ensure legibility line-widths are constrained inherently within the Delphinus Design System. This makes sure that a line, e.g. a p-tag or a header, is never rendered wider than about 65 to 75 characters per line.

The maximum allowed line-width is proportional to the font-size, such that texts with larger fonts are allow to become relatively wider, but no wider, than the above-mentioned character limit.

Maximum line-widths across font-sizes

Note: You will need a screen wider than the maximum allowed line-widths to view this demo properly.
