Hi all, I am new to Figma and I am not a developer… I have just changed my role in the company I work for and trying to move toward the design-side.
I have just created in Figma - let’s say like an exercise - some frames for a web application choosing the 1440px preset wireframe but I’m not sure which size the texts should have in the wireframe to obtain a “realistic” preview … if I run the prototype or just play the presentation of the frames the texts seem too big to me but I don’t know if it is just a matter of resizing them in the frames or maybe a lack of responsiveness or … what? I wait for your advice. Which text size do you usually choose for a 1440 wireframe? Thanks

Realistic text size in a 1440 wireframe

You can stick with 16px as your base size. Use it for paragraphs and buttons. And then select font sizes for:
- Hero heading - 64px
- Article Headings h1,h2,h3 - respectively 48px, 36px, 24px
- Small text - 14px
Since you’ll be creating wireframes, exact sizes won’t matter. So long as anyone viewing them can clearly read your content.
Once you move on to UI design, consider using a scale. You can try a service like https://typescale.com/ to figure out which one is most suited to your work.
