Hey 
Just trying to get my head around how em font sizing works
I'm using 10pt arial as my standard font, so if I put 2em this creates the same effect ... fair enough ... but I also have some fonts at 8pt ... so I put 1em and it's coming extremely tiny... as in size 4pt or 6pt? , i tried putting in 1.5em, 1.7em etc. thinking this would sort it but it just isn't budging
I heard that em font sizing was relative to the first font size you put in ... so I tried putting in 2em as the first font, then either 100%, 50% or 200% as the other sizes but this just mucks it up completey.
Is there a way I should be using the em sizing system properly?
