I have a Microsoft Word document which uses a 10pt Arial font. I have re-created this document with HTML/CSS, specifying font: normal 10pt Arial; in my stylesheet. When I print from the web page (from Chrome), the text appears significantly smaller.
I have my text wrapped in a 800px-wide container on my website. Might this be a cause? Besides this, to be honest I’m completely out of ideas & any help would be greatly appreciated.
It could be because you are specifying font sizes in
pts.ptsare pretty much inconsistent across platforms and do not scale. (pxdon’t scale either) Try usingem.See Also: http://www.w3.org/QA/Tips/font-size, CSS Font-Size em vs. px vs. pt vs. percent
