[Bug 649616] Re: FFE: Use font='Ubuntu' as default UI font in default themes

2010-10-03 Thread Paul Sladen
If people are suggesting sizes like 10.5 pt, perhaps the answer is that
the offered menu of sizes would be based on using the *pixels-per-em* as
the granularity (these are ultimately the hint choices that the
rendering infrastructure is going to be rounding/working to).

Based on the standard 72 pt/96 dpi (72pt == 1 inch), we have a one 1
pt increase equal to 4/3 pixels-per-em increase:

  *  9.0 pt - 12 ppm (12.00)
  * 10.0 pt - 13 ppm (13.33)
  * 10.5 pt - 14 ppm (14.00) -- one that is wanted, being skipped
  * 11.0 pt - 15 ppm (14.67)

Since this bug is fixed, it would probably be more productive to move 
discussion of further changes to a different bug.
