Valores

Using the font shorthand property sets the longhand properties as specified, and sets all other font-related properties to their initial values.

See font-style , font-variant , font-weight , font-size , and font-family for legal values of each property.

System fonts can also be specified using the font property, instead of specifying individual longhand properties:

caption 

The font used for captioned controls (e.g., buttons, drop-downs, etc.).

icon 

The font used to label icons.

menu 

The font used in menus (e.g., dropdown menus and menu lists).

message-box 

The font used in dialog boxes.

small-caption 

The font used for labeling small controls.

status-bar 

The font used in window status bars.

-moz-info 

-moz-dialog

/* Set the font size to 12pt and the line height to 14pt. Set the font family to sans-serif */
p { font: 12pt/14pt sans-serif }

/* Set the font size to 80% of the parent tag or default value (if no parent tag present) 
and set the font family to sans-serif */ 
p { font: 80% sans-serif }

/* Set the font weight to bold, the font-style to italic, the font size to large, 
and the font family to serif. */
p { font: bold italic large serif }

Notas

The font-size and font-family parts of the shorthand are mandatory. Omitting them is a syntax error, and causes the entire declaration to be ignored.

Properties for which no values are given are set to their initial value, which is normal for all properties that can be omitted (font-style , font-variant , font-weight , and line-height ).

The font-size-adjust property is also set to its initial value (none) when the font shorthand property is specified.
