So what is the best approach to dealing with pt sizes in CSS? Do I multiply every pt size by 3/4 in CSS? Will this always result in Node Fonts that are 4/3 times the specified CSS value?
I assume I can't just use px and expect Node Fonts to have the identical value, only in points, regardless of the display. Maybe Region should have a new attribute called FixCSSPoints that we could set after adding style sheets? jeff On Mar 5, 2014, at 10:09 AM, Felipe Heidrich <felipe.heidr...@oracle.com> wrote: > Hi > > On Mar 4, 2014, at 4:42 PM, Jeff Martin <j...@reportmill.com> wrote: > >> Thanks Tom!
