# Font properties

These properties determine the **font style, color, and text wrapping** for the text content of your element.

***

### Font

* **Style**\
  Displays the currently selected **font and font style**.
  * To change the font, click the **\[...]** browse button next to the text box to open the **font dialog box**.
  * You can also use the quick **typeface buttons** (Bold, Italic, Underline, etc.) to adjust styling.
  * Click the **Clear** button to reset and turn off all typeface settings.

**Important Note on Fonts:**

* Make sure that any font you choose is **available on all PADS4 Viewers**.
* If a selected font is **not available during playback**, a **default font** will be used instead.
* Fonts added via **PADS4 System Management** are **automatically installed** on all (HTML5) Viewers and shown **at the top of the font dialog list**, marked with a special icon.
* **Recommendation**: Always use PADS4-distributed fonts to ensure consistency across devices.

***

### Color

* Select the **font color** using the **drop-down color picker**.
* You can choose:
  * **Fixed color**
  * **Gradient (two or three colors)**
  * **Texture or pattern**
* See **Using the color picker** for detailed usage instructions.

***

### Text Wrapping

Choose how the text will behave when it exceeds the element width:

| Option               | Description                                                                |
| -------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **No Text Wrapping** | Text will remain on a single line. If too long, it will be cut off.        |
| **Wrap Text**        | Text will automatically wrap to the next line if it exceeds element width. |

***

### Remarks

* **Line breaks** (e.g., `<CR>`, `<CR><LF>`) in your text will **always create a new line**, regardless of the text wrapping option selected.
