FAQ

What point size is 小四?

小四 is 12 pt, the most common size for report body text; 四號 is 14 pt and 三號 is 16 pt.

Why can’t I find 小四 in my Word?

The font-size list in Traditional Chinese Word uses points (pt), so choosing 12 is the same as 小四. Only the Simplified Chinese edition lists the Chinese size names.

I design for the web in px. How do I convert?

On a 96 dpi screen 1 pt is about 1.333 px, so 12 pt is about 16 px. Use the converter on the right.
