Bootstrap includes simple and easily customized typography for headings, body text, lists, and more. For even more control, check out the [textual utility classes](/components/utilities/).

## Global settings

Bootstrap sets basic global display, typography, and link styles. Specifically, we:

- Set `background-color: #fff;` on the `<body>`
- Use the `@font-family-base`, `@font-size-base`, and `@line-height-base` attributes as our typographic base
- Set the global link color via `@link-color` and apply link underlines only on `:hover`

These styles can be found within `scaffolding.less`.

## Headings

All HTML headings, `<h1>` through `<h6>`, are available. `.h1` through `.h6` classes are also available, for when you want to match the font styling of a heading but still want your text to be displayed inline.

## 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.

<div class="bd-example bd-example-type">
  <table class="table">
    <tbody>
      <tr>
        <td><h1 class="display-4">Display 4</h1></td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
      <td><h1 class="display-3">Display 3</h1></td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
      <td><h1 class="display-2">Display 2</h1></td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
      <td><h1 class="display-1">Display 1</h1></td>
      </tr>
    </tbody>
  </table>
</div>

Make a paragraph stand out by adding `.lead`.

<p class="lead">
  Vivamus sagittis lacus vel augue laoreet rutrum faucibus dolor auctor. Duis mollis, est non commodo luctus.

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.

Stylized implementation of HTML's `<abbr>` element for abbreviations and acronyms to show the expanded version on hover. Abbreviations with a `title` attribute have a light dotted bottom border and a help cursor on hover, providing additional context on hover and to users of assistive technologies.

For quoting blocks of content from another source within your document. Wrap `<blockquote>` around any <abbr title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</abbr> as the quote. For straight quotes, we recommend a `<p>`.

## 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.

{% example html %}
<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>
{% endexample %}

### Horizontal description

213 
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.
