What to change
Ask the supplier to demonstrate resilience to user text-spacing adjustments as part of the page's acceptance review.
A worked example
Illustrative example
A two-line button label becomes three lines under increased spacing, but the button grows and the next control moves down without overlap.
How to check the result
Accept when the tested spacing changes do not remove information or functionality, and affected components adjust without forcing smaller text.
A mistake to avoid
Checking paragraph text alone misses many failures in compact controls, badges and input labels.
Your action checklist
Use these checks to prepare a discussion with your team or supplier. Tick a check when you have recorded the decision or evidence, rather than when a feature has simply been promised.
