I encountered this strange phenomena when using cufon text in an html page. IE9, FF, Chrome is working. On IE7 and 8 however the cufon breaks before the font tag. Any ideas how to solve the issue? using is unfortunately no option since it changes the line-height.

    The <font> tag has been pretty much deprecated for a while. Did you try using a <sub>, which is basically what you’re looking to achieve.

    -EDIT- I just tried your code, using Lato as a font, and it works fine in IE7 and IE8.

    -Yet another EDIT- As the original author specified, using <span style="font-size: 75%"> solved the issue, which is, a better way than using the deprecated <font> tag 🙂
