Well actually, relative font sizing works would be 'larger' and 'smaller', which would take into account what fonts are actually available. Specifying the fonts with percentages or em often ends up at a font size that is not available and must be scaled, which can look really bad. But before I make a mess by trying to explain it, search for: css relative font sizes -w3schools I actually don't assign sizes in my own CSS and rely on the default sizes the browser delivers. That may be too chancy for you since the defaults are bad in several older browsers, but it works well enough with all the modern ones. > In h2, h3, and h4, removing Arial as the font-family and letting the > browser use the default sans font looked ugly. Is there a more > general way to specify an Arial-like font? Sans-serif uses whatever the user has specified to be used for this font. To me, Arial looks ugly and I'm using a different font there; I've also replaced serif with the same font because I've yet to find a website that actually reads better with a serif font. Finally, I've also locked my fonts so I don't get overruled by some webdesigners idea of "nice-looking" and "readable" (which may well be true on their computer). :-) BTW, "sans" is not a generic font family and might actually return a (pixel?) font installed on the system. Last but not least, font families should be quoted and generic families not, e.g.: font: "Georgia", sans-serif; font-size: medium; /* absolute specification decided by UA, user preference */ Regards, Achim. -- +<[Q+ Matrix-12 WAVE#46+305 Neuron microQkb Andromeda XTk Blofeld]>+ Wavetables for the Terratec KOMPLEXER: http://Synth.Stromeko.net/Downloads.html#KomplexerWaves _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
