    Pourquoi et quand exécuter cette tâche

    The global base font size acts as the foundation for all other typography sizes. Increasing or decreasing the base value scales every size category proportionally, preserving the relative differences between sizes.

    When you edit font sizes by category, you change which size tier the category uses, not the size values themselves. This approach enables you to adjust the relative emphasis of different types of text while keeping size values consistent and reusable across the theme.

    Font sizing changes in Theme Builder also apply to web embeddables using your theme. This approach ensures consistent typography across ServiceNow and any embedded components on external sites. If you use embeddables, preview your theme to confirm sizes render as expected.
    Important :
    Changing the font size may cause components to appear distorted or lead to unexpected issues with how text is displayed.
