I started to look up "sans-serial" before I realized it seems to be just a typo for "sans-serif" (or is there something I'm missing)? Is there a reason to apply this style change just to docbook-generated HTML? Most of the HTML documentation is generated directly from asciidoc. > html body { > margin: 1em 5% 1em 5%; > - line-height: 1.2; > + line-height: 1em; > + font-family: sans-serif; > + font-size: small; Personally, I think collapsing the line spacing looks worse. I'm not sure I see the point of putting "small" text for the entire body. Since it covers the whole page, you are not "small" with respect to anything else, but are basically just overriding the user's choice through their browser of what is a reasonable default text size. -Peff
