# CaptionFontSize

Font size for burn-in and DVB-Sub captions.

Use {@link CaptionFontSize.AUTO} to scale the font size with the output resolution, or
{@link CaptionFontSize.of} to set an exact size in points.

```ts
// Define a caption selector on the input attachment (see Input Attachment Settings below)
const captionSelector = medialive.CaptionSelector.embedded('captions');

  name: 'eng_webvtt',
  captionSelectorName: captionSelector.name,
  languageCode: 'eng',
  languageDescription: 'English',
  destination: medialive.CaptionDestination.webvtt(),
});

// Burned-in captions — rendered into the video, styled via the burn-in options
const burnIn = medialive.EncodeConfiguration.caption({
  name: 'eng_burnin',
  captionSelectorName: captionSelector.name,
  destination: medialive.CaptionDestination.burnIn({
