- only ever allow font-size css in classes which are supposed to be different from the normal body text, e.g.
- headings (font-size: 1.5em)
- pseudo smallcaps (font-size: 0.75em)
- I do always add font-size:1em to whatever class corresponds to the <body...> tag, to normalise all the sizes lower down the hierarchy
It works fine. Whenever I change the font-size slider everything scales in proportion.
Have you really been editing your Sony epubs in hard-coded px units, like this test epub, all these years? |
I created that ePub so I can decide if I want to change the values of the font size slider in the patch. I use mostly font sizes by name i.e., small, large, x-large, etc. But when the publisher specifies a size and it's not a problem with the size, I usually leave it as is and its usually in em.
I'll give your recommendations a try. Thanks.
