Bottom few pixels of text cut off

Question

I really can't figure out what's going on in this case. On the multiline pieces of text, the bottom few pixels are cut off.

Looks fine to me on Firefox. Which browser are you seeing this problem in? – Collegian

Looks good in Chrome too. Perhaps a screen cap will help? – Hampden

Only on the second line, by the way. The first line is fine. – Milklivered

Answer 1

The quickest fix looks to be this:

Change the font-size here from 14px to 13px

#slidertext h3 {
font-size: 13px;
// other styles
}

Works for me in Chrome.

Using this. Text still looks nice, and doesn't have any complications. Also allows for longer submissions without added complications in the future. Thanks. – Milklivered

this doesn't actually fix the problem, which is a line-height issue. As noted below setting line-height: normal; is the fix – Partly

Answer 2

Setting

line-height: normal;

Worked for me.

@Reece You should accept this answer so it gets more visibility. It solved my problem – Caniff

Answer 3

Changing font-size and font-family is just a workaround. I had same issue. It works well in Firefox however not in Chrome. Check padding or margin of the input box. It was padding in my case. I changed padding:6px to padding:0px 6px; in my case.

Answer 4

On #slidertext li you have overflow: hidden; set. You either need to adjust height of the li, you have inline styles setting it to height: 32px, turn off overflow, or adjust the font size inside of there.

Answer 5

Try applying line-height to the paragraph so it fits whatever font-size you are trying to set. In my case font-size was 14px, so I set line-height to 15px.

As per specific Browsers this kind of issue is related to the Font Family, very often. My solution for text being cut off is to change the font family to sans-serif and see if this has any effect. This worked infallibly on any browser I tried it in.

As from what the other threads above are stating... it just might help to adjust line-height and padding, sometimes, but for me, none of these worked in general:

max-width: 100%;
min-height: 1.62em;
padding: 2px 5px 2px 5px;    
vertical-align: initial;

font-family: initial, sans-serif, serif; is a good starting point and then you can find a font that plays nice with your theme/site.

This fix mine:

letter-spacing: normal;

Answer 8

For me it was font-kerning. Its default value is auto which means it is using kerning information stored in a font. I changed it to normal and it fixed the issue.

input {
  font-kerning: normal;
}

Answer 9

Most of the cases, if font is cutting off from the bottom, it's means, we are using, please try below if this helps overflow:hidden;

For fixing this issue, please use,

overflow-x:hidden;
line-height: according to your style-guide (1/1.5//normal);

// You can increase and decrease line depending on your style-guide)

Answer 10

Check the size of the sliderwrap, the height attribute may be in conflict with the total text size, and since your overflow is hidden, according to your css property, that might be your issue.

Perhaps fixing it like this:

#sliderwrap
{
    height:114;
}
