size - CSS: Cascading Style Sheets 编辑

Experimental

This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.

The size CSS at-rule descriptor, used with the @page at-rule, defines the size and orientation of the box which is used to represent a page. Most of the time, this size corresponds to the target size of the printed page if applicable.

Size may either be defined with a "scalable" keyword (in this case the page will fill the available dimensions) or with absolute dimensions.

Syntax

/* Keyword values for scalable size */
size: auto;
size: portrait;
size: landscape;

/* <length> values */
/* 1 value: height = width */
size: 6in;

/* 2 values: width then height */
size: 4in 6in;

/* Keyword values for absolute size */
size: A4;
size: B5;
size: JIS-B4;
size: letter;

/* Mixing size and orientation */
size: A4 portrait;

Values

auto

portrait

<length>

Any length value (see <length>). The first value corresponds to the width of the page box and the second one corresponds to its height. If only one value is provided, it is used for both width and height.
