Okay, then. - What are your fonts settings in Iceweasel? Here is what I have: *** Occidental (iso-8859-1) Proportional font: San serif Serif: Times News Roman / point: 16 Sans-serif: Arial Monospace: Courier-new / point: 13 Smallest font size: none [x] Allow pages to select their own font face, instead the above selection *** BTW, you can make some checks between Chrome and Iceweasel by browsing through these pages: http://fm.no-ip.com/auth/Font/font-arial.html http://fm.no-ip.com/auth/Font/font-tahoma.html http://fm.no-ip.com/auth/Font/font-verdana.html Here is a snapshot of how Iceweasel renders Arial and Verdana fonts in my system: http://picpaste.com/arial.png http://picpaste.com/verdana.png Also, print the pages (directly from both, Chrome and Iceweasel) to see if you still see the size difference in the printed page. >> > -- anyway how can I set screen DPI? >> > Option in `device` section in xorg.conf seems to have no effect. >> > >> > Thanks a lot for your replies so far >> >> In Gnome, you can right-click on the desktop and select "Change desktop >> background / Fonts tab / Details" > > Thanks but that seems to have no effect on the browser contents, just > changing gnome fonts.
