I guess the final word is that CSS assumes 1pt==1/92in, and Nodes convert that to the real world on render? And that this is basically a bug, but it can't be fixed due to legacy considerations? jeff On Mar 4, 2014, at 6:10 PM, Tom Schindl <tom.schi...@bestsolution.at> wrote: > There was a thread some time ago on this List with explainations of this > behavior! > > Tom > > Von meinem iPhone gesendet > >> Am 05.03.2014 um 01:03 schrieb Jeff Martin <j...@reportmill.com>: >> >> I can't quite wrap my head around why when I specify an -fx-font-size of 9pt >> in CSS, it turns into a 12 pt font in my rendered node.
