Modifying Font Size in Tiptap with React

If you're utilizing Tiptap as an editor in your React application, you may have encountered a common challenge: adjusting the font size within the editor. It's a feature that many developers expect, but you might not find an existing package that addresses this directly. In this guide, we'll walk you through how to create a custom extension for Tiptap that allows you to easily manage font sizes in your editor.

Understanding the Need for Font Size Adjustment

In text editing applications, the ability to vary font size is crucial for emphasizing content and enhancing readability. Users often want to customize text to meet their stylistic preferences or to adhere to specific design guidelines. Tiptap is flexible and extensible, but managing font size requires a custom approach.

Creating a Custom Font Size Extension

To enable font size changes in Tiptap, we can create a custom extension. Here’s how you can implement it step-by-step.

Step 1: Import Tiptap's Extension Module

First, make sure you have the necessary library installed. You'll be importing the Extension from the Tiptap package:

Now we'll define our custom extension called FontSize. This extension will allow us to set and unset font sizes. Here’s the complete code:

Step 3: Integrate the Extension into Your Editor

To use the newly created FontSize extension, simply add it to your Tiptap editor instance. This is typically done where you initialize your editor. For example:

Step 4: Using Font Size Commands

Now that you've set up the custom extension, you can easily set or unset the font size through the defined commands. You can create buttons or dropdowns in your UI that call these commands using the editor instance. For example:
