Font-style refers to the 'slant' of the text. Three styles are available:

  • Normal
  • Italic
  • Oblique

The Oblique style is similar to Italic, but not the same as Italic. Within the serif font families, the italic and oblique differ in the shape of the serif and may look entirely different. Sans-serif families often display oblique and italic the same.

Font-style specified with the Style Element
P { font-style: italic }
