Created attachment 15890 [details] comparison tabs *start edit a page (Edit source) in a new Tab *Preferences - Editing - Editor/Edit area font style: *choose "Sans-serif font" *start edit a page (Edit source) in a new Tab *if compare the tab with the "default font" and tab with "Sans-serif font" then the font size will be much more. On my own css page I wrote "wikiEditor-ui textarea # wpTextbox1 {font-size: 1em;}" to work normally.
Which exact browser version of Firefox is this? What is set as default sans-serif font and size in your browser settings under "Content > Fonts" and "Content > Fonts > Advanced"?
Created attachment 15891 [details] Several fonts at 20pt Thank you for the report, but I'm afraid there isn't much we can do about this. There is for some reason a lot of size variation in monospace fonts (see attachment – these are all actually at the same point size!), and Courier New (the default on Windows, the one you're using) is one of the particularly "feeble" ones – when you change to almost any other font, the text suddenly looks bigger.

Yes, I understand. But it somehow frightens users off the use other choices.
