Vue Bootstrap Typography
Vue Typography - Bootstrap 4 & Material Design
Note: This documentation is for an older version of Bootstrap (v.4). A
newer version is available for Bootstrap 5. We recommend migrating to the latest version of our product - Material Design for
Bootstrap 5.

Documentation and examples for Vue Bootstrap typography, including global settings, headings, body text, lists, and more.
The standard font for MDBootstrap is minimalist and elegant "Roboto" from Google.
About "Roboto"
Roboto has a dual nature. It has a mechanical skeleton and the forms are largely geometric. At the same time, the font features friendly and open curves. While some grotesques distort their letterforms to force a rigid rhythm, Roboto doesn’t compromise, allowing letters to be settled into their natural width. This makes for a more natural reading rhythm more commonly found in humanist and serif types.
Heading
All HTML headings, <h1> through <h6>, are
available.

font styling
of a heading but cannot use the associated HTML element.

Responsive headings
By adding an appropriate class, you can make your heading responsive. Thanks to that it will look good on all screen sizes.
Resize your browser windows to see the effect.
h1. heading
h2. heading
h3. heading
h4. heading
h5. heading
<template>
<div>
<h2 class="h1-responsive">h1. heading</h2>
<hr>
<h2 class="h2-responsive">h2. heading</h2>
<hr>
<h3 class="h3-responsive">h3. heading</h3>
<hr>
<h4 class="h4-responsive">h4. heading</h4>
<hr>
<h5 class="h5-responsive">h5. heading</h5>

Customizing headings
Use the included utility classes to recreate the small secondary heading text from Bootstrap 3.
Fancy display heading With faded secondary text
<template>
<h3>
<strong>Fancy display heading</strong>
<small class="text-muted">With faded secondary text</small>
</h3>
</template>
Display headings
Traditional heading elements are designed to work best in the meat of your page content. When you need a heading to stand out, consider using a display heading — a larger, slightly more opinionated heading style.
Display 1
Display 2
Display 3
Display 4
Display 4
<template>
<div>
<h1 class="display-1">Display 1</h1>
<h1 class="display-2">Display 2</h1>
<h1 class="display-3">Display 3</h1>
<h1 class="display-4">Display 4</h1>
</div>
</template>
Lead
Make a paragraph stand out by adding .lead
Lead
Vivamus sagittis lacus vel augue laoreet rutrum faucibus dolor auctor. Duis mollis, est non commodo luctus.
Regular paragraph
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit. Facilis tenetur sit voluptatem molestias ad neque veritatis! Alias natus, nobis laudantium, veritatis, atque illum ipsam nisi voluptas nesciunt harum laborum perspiciatis!
<template>
<p class="lead">
Vivamus sagittis lacus vel augue laoreet rutrum faucibus dolor auctor. Duis mollis, est non commodo luctus.
</p>
</template>
Inline text elements
Styling for common inline HTML5 elements.
You can use the mark tag to highlight text.
This line of text is meant to be treated as deleted text.
This line of text is meant to be treated as no longer accurate.
This line of text is meant to be treated as an addition to the document.
This line of text will render as underlined
This line of text is meant to be treated as fine print.
This line rendered as bold text.
This line rendered as italicized text.
<template>
<div>
<p>You can use the mark tag to <mark>highlight</mark> text.</p>
<p><del>This line of text is meant to be treated as deleted text.</del></p>
<p><s>This line of text is meant to be treated as no longer accurate.</s></p>
<p><ins>This line of text is meant to be treated as an addition to the document.</ins></p>
<p><u>This line of text will render as underlined</u></p>
<p><small>This line of text is meant to be treated as fine print.</small></p>
<p><strong>This line rendered as bold text.</strong></p>
<p><em>This line rendered as italicized text.</em></p>
</div>
</template>
.mark and .small classes are also available to apply the same styles as <mark>
and <small> while avoiding any unwanted semantic implications that the tags would bring.
While not shown above, feel free to use <b> and <i> in HTML5. <b>
is meant to highlight words or phrases without conveying additional importance while <i> is
mostly for voice, technical terms, etc.
Text utilities
Change text alignment, transform, style, weight, and color with our text utilities and color utilities.
Abbreviations
Stylized implementation of HTML’s <abbr> element for abbreviations and acronyms to show the
expanded version on hover. Abbreviations have a default underline from Normalize.css and gain a help cursor
to provide additional context on hover and to users of assistive technologies.
Add .initialism to an abbreviation for a slightly smaller font-size.
<template>
<div>
<p><abbr title="attribute">attr</abbr></p>
<p><abbr title="HyperText Markup Language" class="initialism">HTML</abbr></p>
</div>
</template>
Blockquotes
For quoting blocks of content from another source within your document. Wrap <blockquote
class="blockquote"> around any HTML as the quote.
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Integer posuere erat a ante.
<template>
<blockquote class="blockquote">
<p class="mb-0">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Integer posuere erat a ante.</p>
</blockquote>
</template>
Naming a source
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Integer posuere erat a ante.
<template>
<blockquote class="blockquote">
<p class="mb-0">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Integer posuere erat a ante.</p>
<footer class="blockquote-footer mb-3">Someone famous in <cite title="Source Title">Source Title</cite></footer>
</blockquote>
</template>
Alignment
Use text utilities as needed to change the alignment of your blockquote.
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Integer posuere erat a ante.
<template>
<blockquote class="blockquote text-center">
<p class="mb-0">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Integer posuere erat a ante.</p>
<footer class="blockquote-footer mb-3">Someone famous in <cite title="Source Title">Source Title</cite></footer>
</blockquote>
</template>
Text notifications
If you want to interject into the middle of the article important information for the user, use notifications.
Info notification
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit. Maiores quibusdam dignissimos itaque harum illo! Quidem, corporis at quae tempore nisi impedit cupiditate perferendis nesciunt, ex dolores doloremque! Sit, rem, in?

Lists
Unstyled
Remove the default list-style and left margin on list items (immediate children only). This
only applies to immediate children list items,
meaning you will need to add the class for any nested lists as well.
- Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
- Consectetur adipiscing elit
- Integer molestie lorem at massa
- Facilisis in pretium nisl aliquet
- Nulla volutpat aliquam velit
- Phasellus iaculis neque
- Purus sodales ultricies
- Vestibulum laoreet porttitor sem
- Ac tristique libero volutpat at
- Faucibus porta lacus fringilla vel
- Aenean sit amet erat nunc
- Eget porttitor lorem
<template>
<ul class="list-unstyled">
<li>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet</li>
<li>Consectetur adipiscing elit</li>
<li>Integer molestie lorem at massa</li>
<li>Facilisis in pretium nisl aliquet</li>
<li>Nulla volutpat aliquam velit
<ul>
<li>Phasellus iaculis neque</li>
<li>Purus sodales ultricies</li>
<li>Vestibulum laoreet porttitor sem</li>
<li>Ac tristique libero volutpat at</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Faucibus porta lacus fringilla vel</li>
<li>Aenean sit amet erat nunc</li>
<li>Eget porttitor lorem</li>
</ul>
</template>
Inline
Remove a list’s bullets and apply some light margin with a combination of
two classes, .list-inline and .list-inline-item.
- Lorem ipsum
- Phasellus iaculis
- Nulla volutpat
<template>
<ul class="list-inline">
<li class="list-inline-item">Lorem ipsum</li>
<li class="list-inline-item">Phasellus iaculis</li>
<li class="list-inline-item">Nulla volutpat</li>
</ul>
</template>
Description list alignment
Align terms and descriptions horizontally by using our grid system’s predefined classes
(or semantic mixins). For
longer terms, you can optionally add a .text-truncate class to truncate the text with an ellipsis.
- Description lists
- A description list is perfect for defining terms.
- Euismod
- Vestibulum id ligula porta felis euismod semper eget lacinia odio sem nec elit.
- Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus.
- Malesuada porta
- Etiam porta sem malesuada magna mollis euismod.
- Truncated term is truncated
- Fusce dapibus, tellus ac cursus commodo, tortor mauris condimentum nibh, ut fermentum massa justo sit amet risus.
- Nesting
-
- Nested definition list
- Aenean posuere, tortor sed cursus feugiat, nunc augue blandit nunc.
<template>
<dl class="row">
<dt class="col-sm-3">Description lists</dt>
<dd class="col-sm-9">A description list is perfect for defining terms.</dd>
<dt class="col-sm-3">Euismod</dt>
<dd class="col-sm-9">Vestibulum id ligula porta felis euismod semper eget lacinia odio sem nec elit.</dd>
<dd class="col-sm-9 offset-sm-3">Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus.</dd>
<dt class="col-sm-3">Malesuada porta</dt>
<dd class="col-sm-9">Etiam porta sem malesuada magna mollis euismod.</dd>
<dt class="col-sm-3 text-truncate">Truncated term is truncated</dt>
<dd class="col-sm-9">Fusce dapibus, tellus ac cursus commodo, tortor mauris condimentum nibh, ut fermentum
massa justo sit amet
risus.
</dd>
<dt class="col-sm-3">Nesting</dt>
<dd class="col-sm-9">
<dl class="row">
<dt class="col-sm-4">Nested definition list</dt>
<dd class="col-sm-8">Aenean posuere, tortor sed cursus feugiat, nunc augue blandit nunc.</dd>
</dl>
</dd>
</dl>

Responsive typography
Responsive typography refers to scaling text and components by simply adjusting the root element’s font-size
within a series of media queries. MDBootstrap doesn’t do this for you, but it’s fairly easy to add if you
need it.
Here’s an example of it in practice. Choose whatever font-sizes and media queries you wish.
html {
font-size: 1rem;
}
@include media-breakpoint-up(sm) {
html {
font-size: 1.2rem;
}
}
@include media-breakpoint-up(md) {
html {
font-size: 1.4rem;
}
}
@include media-breakpoint-up(lg) {
html {
font-size: 1.6rem;
}
}
Text colors
MDBootstrap allows you to simply set the text color. All you have to to is add one of our color classes:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit.
Impedit architecto, totam hic sunt eum odio, deleniti.
Similique ex, expedita minus assumenda a magni beatae dolorum itaque.
