i.e. an inconsequential HTML tag that includes inline CSS properties in order to specify the look of the text. The problem is that the font size in the CSS does not result in an equivalent size in the resulting attributed string. In this example, the resulting font size is 27 (20 * 1 1/3 = 26.66666 = 27 with rounding).

(NOTE: I am in control of the HTML that my code is converting, so if there is some way to fix this problem through a change to the HTML then that will suffice.)


The problem is that point units in CSS are problematic, I recommend simply converting all the point measurements to pixels:

<ilayer style="font-family: Courier;font-size: 20px;color: rgb(51,139,213);">

This will probably give you the output you want.

BTW, ilayer is an extremely old deprecated element, I assume this is legacy code because it is definitely no longer supported.
