Long Form Text

Long form text is a component used to create articles, technical documentation, press releases and other common long forms of copy intended to be read directly in a browser.

The LUCI long form text applies vertical spacing to optimize readability of long blocks of text content. It is founded on the overall LUCI typographic system.

How to Use Long Form Text

To use the long form text component, enclose simple HTML tags–<h1>, <h2>, <h3>, <h4>, <h5>, <h6>, <p>, <ul>, <ol>, img, <hr> and <a>- within an enclosing block with class="luci-long-form-text".

Combining Long Form Text With Other Components

The example below shows how two blocks of long form text start and stop to include a data table component between those segments. Each Long Form Text component will have a bottom margin of 32px to ensure the placed component is adequately spaced.
