On both my Macbook Pro 13" using Chrome and my iPhone 6 using Safari,
"responsive" looks the best, on the phobe it leaves a small margin on the
right. Of the others, on the laptop, 10 looks the best, and on my iPhone, 9
leaves a bit of a larger margin on the right, but is the most readable
because 10, 11, and 12 all look identical, taking the text right up to the
right edge of the screen.
Ok, good. Thanks!
Henrik
Cheers,
Andy

I have to agree that 12pt produces too large a default. Is there an
easy way for me as a user to experiment with what 10pt would look like, so
I can comment on that? And is there an easy way for me to try that size on
my phone, to see if it seems equally readable there?
I'll set up a bunch of sample pages for you to try out.
Here are links to pages set up with 9pt, 10pt, 11pt and 12pt:

??? You obviously believe that a font size of '1em' or 'medium' is
semantically
more correct than '12pt'. Can you back that up? The CSS 2.1
specification
is very clear about the semantic meaning of point sizes, see Section
4.3.2 of
the CSS 2.1 specifcaiton.
If you don't want to use "1em", please consider "medium", which tells
the browser to use the default size it believes is best based on
defaults and configuration by the user.
That's funny. 'medium' is the default setting, which is what you get
with
1em. Hilarious :-D
Today I thought my browser on my laptop had a bug in it, because it
displayed the draft using insanely big letters and I had to hit ctrl
"-"
to bring the size down to something reasonable. Then I noticed this
thread :P
