Beverly,

Yes, I'm exploring this. The parsing (and thus getting it back into FM) is 
taken care of by Christopher Gauntt's excellent CSStoFMText custom function. 

It seems that if a custom size hasn't been specified on the text, and it's 
showing at the field's default size, GetAsCSS() guesses size 12. That is 
unfortunate for a size 9 field, in which the user may have upsized some text to 
12. I have no way of telling which text is default 12 and which has been custom 
sized to 12.

Bobby, I should have been more explicit in what I was asking.
Thank you both.

Still thinking,
Geoff
