1,063 PointsHow to figure out the default font-size?
What if I don't set any specific font-size for a heading, how do I find out what the relative margin to the heading is? Is there a default font-size for h1, h2, h3, etc.?
Thank you.

H1 32px
H2 24px
H3 18px
H4 16px (also plain inline text)
H5 13px
H6 10px
