# Rem conversion

The trem Cwicly shortcut allows you to convert any type of typography unit to Rem (root-em). Using rem, a user can set the default size of an element from the browser settings and scale to match their preferences. 

{% hint style="info" %}
This helps to reduce accessibility barriers due to  absolute units such as pixels.
{% endhint %}

* Select typography field containing unit to be converted.
