Recommendations on text and accessibility
Line height (line spacing): At least 1.5 times the font size. This spacing prevents lines of text from overlapping and makes it easier to follow from one line to the next.
Letter spacing: Adjusting the spacing between characters to at least 0.12 times the font size improves readability.
Paragraph spacing: The space between two paragraphs of text should be at least 2 times the font size to create a clear separation.
Minimum font size: Use a minimum font size of 16 pixels for normal text (body text).
