Optimize text for different browsers

Post by Trugmaker »

I am nearing 70 and Pablo's software is a never ending learning curve, but just as I absorb enough to create acceptable websites, he introduces a newer version! But this does maintain brain exercise which is so desperately required. Ditto to all previous approbations and one more thankyou for your rapid responses. Either there are 15 'Pablo's' or he should get out more!
Anyway, enough accolades - Am I right in thinking that to solve the variances in how different browsers display text, is to save a text block as an image, delete the text then replace with the saved text image? Of course this will need to be repeated for each breakpoint. If so, are there any detrimental effects of doing this?
Never complain about getting old, the alternative is far worse!

Using line height usually solves most issues with compatibly.

But there are several other ways to optimize text for different browsers. See the FAQ:

There is no 'best' option. It depends on the used font, amount of text and the type of layout.
For flexible layouts, the text will always be displayed correctly.
For fixed/absolute layout, I suggest not to put too much text inside a single textbox or use line-height for more accurate results.
