The HTML <font> Tag plays an important role in the web page to create an attractive and readable web page. The font tag is used to change the color, size, and style of a text and it was used in HTML4. The base font tag is used to set all the text to the same size, color, and face.
Note: Font tag is not supported in HTML5.Â
