English term or phrase: em-box
Definition from University of Minnesota Duluth :
The box around a font character of a given 'size' as designed by the designer. It is sometimes referred to as an em-square. The theoretical square that glyphs are designed upon. Its height is the intended distance between lines of type in the same type size. It is the design grid on which the glyph outlines are defined.

Example sentence(s):
  • The ideographic em-box center baseline is defined as halfway between the ideographic em-box top and bottom baselines in the horizontal axis, and halfway between the ideographic em-box left and right baselines in the vertical axis. Microsoft Corporation
  • This text uses the em-box definition, for simplicity’s sake. In replaced elements, the content area is the intrinsic height of the element plus any margins, borders, or padding. oreilly.com
  • During development it was noticed that there could be placement errors if the em box, the ascender and descender don't match. wiki.apache.org

em-mittayksikkö


Definition from own experience or research:
em-mittayksikkö suhteutuu ympäröivän elementin fonttikokoon. Se on kirjasinlajin korkeus, joka määritetään korkeudeksi, jonka tietyn korkuinen kirjasinlaji tarvitsee, mukaan lukien aksenttimerkki ja perusviivan alle menevä osa.

Example sentence(s):
  • CSS em-yksikkö taitaa käytännössä toimia täysin samoin kuin %-yksikkö, eikä näin ollen 1em vastaa 16 pikseliä, vaan suoraan käyttäjän selaimessa asettamaa fonttikokoa. Ja aivan kuten prosentteina määriteltyjen kokojen kanssa, em-määritelty fonttikoko muuttuu CSS-perinnän mukaan: jos oletuskoko on 16px, font-size: 80% blokin sisällä 1em vastaa noin 13px fonttia - Saavutettava  
  • Em mittayksiköt ilmoitetaan tyyliin: 0.50em, 0.65em, 0.90em, 1em, 1.1em, 1.5em, 2em, 2.3em... jne. Yksikkö 1em on alkuperäinen koko. Luvun noustessa korkeammaksi kuin 1em fontin koko alkaa suureta. Laskiessa pienemmäksi kuin 1em fontin koko alkaa pienetä. - Survival
