Again, the issue is with the font size in printed output.
Um, oops. I missed that.
That's harder. PDF is designed to print an exact image, not to be
user-adjustable. I think if you're going to use Portable Document Format
you'd basically have to create each document with double-sized fonts.
I understand. But allow me to set aside the matter of PDF and inquire
regarding HTML, inasmuch as I am creating (using HeVeA) a HTML version
of each PDF document.
When I click the PRINT button on the browser to print out a copy of a
web page, the font size in the printed version remains the same,
irrespective of the TEXT SIZE or ZOOM selection which I have made with
the browser.
And some web pages print with a very small font, while others print
with a rather large font.
At least, this is the case with the browsers I personally have used.
So I would like to know what mechanism controls the font size when
printing an HTML page.
The web browser. It prints from the original rendering, not from
the expanded view.
It's wrong and it's stupid, and I wish it were not so. But it is.

I thought the browser printed according to the default style rules in
some default print stylesheet. A zoomed in page in a browser is just for
your screen - a different medium for rendering the page.
