For the future, anything that has to do with content on the tools server should go to either wembaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx or henrik@xxxxxxxxxxxxx.

So, when I first set up the HTML converter for drafts and RFCs, about 10 years ago, screen DPI was such that the documents served /without/ a point (pt) size mostly displayed on screen in the size I believe people today will experience with the '12pt' documents. What prompted me to start changing this over was that the documents /without/ a point size displayed so disgustingly small on smaller devices, like tablets. The intention is to apply a point setting consistently to all the htmlized documents on tools.ietf.org; the process of converting a document is however sufficiently CPU-intensive that a bulk conversion of all ~165000 documents will take time. Till now I've let it to progress at the rate I renew the conversion by default, which should have them all done in about 20 days. > If I take the "12pt" document and do "view source", I get the text in the > same size as the "1em" documents.

I'd like to hear from other people. The choice of 12pt for today's devices can definitely be changed; please let me know if you have a preference for a different point size. The effect of having two different sizes is transient. I'll see if I can speed it up, but it's /not/ going to be a permanent misfeature. > If I look at the txt versions (change /html/ to /id/) then they are the > same text size as the "1em;" versions. > > So to summarize: > > https://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-homenet-dncp-02.txt > https://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-homenet-hncp-04.txt > https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-homenet-hncp-04 > > all have the same font size on my screen (including following each other > when I do cmd + and cmd - in one of them). > > https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-homenet-dncp-02 > > is a few font sizes bigger.
