Hi, Ian:
Set font-size to the height you need and use (per Anthony's comment)
font-stretch to adjust the width of the typeface. The caveat is that
font-stretch is CSS3 and buggy or non-existent in most browsers. IE 9 is
rumored to support it as is FF3.6+ but it is probably too early to reliably
us
ou would use the font-width statement
to
change the font from left-to-right. is there a way of changing it from
top-to-bottom. ie to stretch the font ?
thanks in advance
Ian

Hi Ian,
You can use line-height to adjust the height of the space the font fits
Hi Ian,
You can use line-height to adjust the height of the space the font fits in, but
as far as I know there isn't a way to scale the font vertically. Even if there
was a way to do that I wouldn't recommend it because it would distort the
original intended look of the typeface. If you need
The only feasible way to do this that I am aware of is with CSS3 and the
font-stretch declaration. But it will still only scale it horizontally,
not vertically.
