First out is text-stroke, a new (and non-standard, so not for real-world use) CSS property that can be used to control the fill and stroke colours as well as the stroke width of text. A description and a couple of examples are available in Introducing Text-Stroke.

One point = 1/72 of an inch One pica = 12 points One em = The distance horizontally equal to the type size, in points, you are using. Eg. 1em of 12pt type is 12pt. (Thanks to Joe for correcting me on this.)

A general good rule of thumb is 2-3 alphabets in length, or 52-78 characters (including spaces).

Your leading should increase proportionally to your Measure. Small Measure, less leading. Wide Measure, more leading.
