Entourage since v10.1.4 sends size info in pixels rather than points. That's
mostly so that email clients on Windows - where the resolution is 96 dpi
rather than 72 as on the Mac - don't see the font as enormous.

You, however, are using Entourage 10.1.1 (as I can see from the Source).
That still sends size info in points, but is constrained by only 5 sizes
available (Smallest, Small, Medium, Large. Largest - or something like
that). So an approximation has been effected which increased the size to one
of the standard sizes : 16 got increased to 18, and anything larger than 18
to 36 or so.

Go to <http://www.microsoft.com/mac/>, and download and apply the Office
10.1.4 and 10.1.5 Updaters. That should help somewhat. To really get a grip
on text sizes, you should upgrade to Office 2004, where you can set HTML
pointy sizes precisely and get that size sent in exact pixels.
