problem with css on different computers

[sharpdust]

on my computer at home, my text on my site comes in like it should--"Bit Streams Verdana", 12 point font.

but when i view my site at my school, the "Bit Streams Verdana" font drops down to 9pt.

here's how the code looks like...

.text { font-family: "Bitstream Vera Sans"; font-size:12px; color:#000000; font-weight:none; padding: 10px; text-align: justify; WORD-SPACING: 1px; }

....

<div class = text>
my code's text
</div>


and here's the actual site

change font-size:12px to font-size: 12pt

you take your chances when you use a font that is not a really common one that will be installed on the majority of computers.

Browsers can only use font faces that are installed on the computer, the school computer may not have that font installed.

But that's not what the CSS reads, Sharpdust.

.text { font-family: "Bitstream Vera Sans"; font-size:10pt; color:#000000; font-weight:none; padding: 10pt; text-align: justify; WORD-SPACING: 1pt; }

That's the code I got off the page and that's what it appears to look like. It's set for 10pt, not 12. And, I think, it shows up as Arial for me. I have Verdana installed on my Mac, but that's not what's listed as a font in your CSS.

that pt thing didn't work

and i'm positive i have that font on the computer at school becuase i use it when i type up my documents.

and pegasus, i don't know what's up with that. it says 12 for me.
can anybody else test that for me?

I also see 10pt.

jere, look at the text class, not the button, you have 10pt as well.
