Type a font size and the calculator returns line-height values for the common typographic ratios — tight, snug, normal, relaxed, and loose — plus a recommended value and a golden-ratio variant. A live preview shows three of the ratios applied to sample text so you can compare leading visually.
1.5 is a safe default for paragraph copy and matches WCAG 1.4.12 spacing guidance. The Recommended card uses this ratio. Drop to 1.375 for dense UI labels and rise to 1.625 for long-form articles.
It multiplies your font size by φ (1.618) for designers who like setting line-height to a golden interval relative to the font size. It is a stylistic choice, not an accessibility rule.
The preview shows three ratios — 1.2, 1.5, and 2 — applied to a pangram so you can compare leading at a glance. The font size in each preview is capped at 24px so the comparison stays visible on small screens.
The copy buttons emit pixel values like <code>24px</code>. To use a unitless ratio in CSS, take the multiplier shown next to each name (1.2, 1.5, etc.) and use that directly.
