font-language-override Summary

The ‘font-language-override’ property allows authors to explicitly specify the language system of the font, overriding the language system implied by the content language.

Overview table

Initial value: normal
Applies to: all elements
Inherited: Yes
Media: visual
Computed value: as specified
Animatable: No
CSS Object Model Property: font
Percentages: N/A

Syntax

font-language-override: <string>
font-language-override: normal

Values

normal: specifies that when rendering with OpenType fonts, the content language of the element is used to infer the OpenType language system
<string>: single three-letter case-sensitive OpenType language system tag, specifies the OpenType language system to be used instead of the language system implied by the language of the element

Usage

 OpenType supports language-specific glyph selection and positioning, so that text can be displayed correctly in cases where the language dictates a specific display behavior. Authors can control the use of language-specific glyph substitutions and positioning by setting the content language of an element.

 <p lang="ksw">...</p>

Notes

Use of invalid OpenType language system tags must not generate a parse error but must be ignored when doing glyph selection and placement.
