What is a font?
The <font> tag is a deprecated way of telling the browser that the text contained between the tag and its closing </font> tag should have certain font properties. This tag has been replaced by the <span> tag in connection with CSS, but most browsers still support the old <font> tag for the sake of backward compatibility. Here are some examples of use. <font face="Times New Roman">text</font> <font color="red">text</font> <font size="+1">text</font> <font face="Arial" color="blue" size=7>text</font> These three bits of markup could be done "correctly" using CSS as follows: <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';">text</span> <span style="color: red;">text</span> <span style="font-size: larger;">text</span> <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: "blue"; font-size: xx-large;">text</span>
A 12-point font is larger than a 10-point font?
Points are an old unit of measurements. They are the smallest measurement in the typographic system of measure. On a modern system, a point is 1/72nd of an inch (or around 0.357 mm.) On the screen, this gets a little murky. Inches are hard to translate to the resolution of a computer screen, and so points are kept mainly in an effort to make people used to the measurement system comfortable. Originally, a font-size was measured from the top to the bottom of the metal backing on the printer's letter. Now, fonts are normally measured from the top of their ascenders (like the top of a "k") to the bottom of the descenders (like the bottom of a "j".) A 12pt. font is a font that can be measured at 12pts, or a little less than 3/16ths of an inch.
How big is a 72 size font?
The answer is: it depends. It depends on the specific units used. In most Word Processing fonts are measured in units called "points." A point is a very old measurement that involves a very old typsetting tool. It has varied over time. But in the 1990s, a technology called PostScript set the new standard: there are 72 points in an inch. That means that a single point is 1/72nd of an inch, or ~0.353 millimeters. In the world of computing, this still varies some, as inches in print don't really translate well onto screen real estate. To set a font to 72 points using CSS you use the following rule .selector { font-size:72pt;} The other very common unit is pixels. A pixel is a tiny square that lights up on your computer screen. When you put these tiny dots together, they form a picture (your eye does the blending.) 72 pixels is about 4 times the size of the font your question is in at the top of the page. (That's 20px.) The symbol for pixels is px, so the above rule would be .selector {font-size:72px;} Pixels are a digital measurement. Points are a print measurement. There's very little continuity between the two. Other measurements are relative. For instance "em" is the size of one "m" (horizontally) in the font you're currently using. If you're using a bigger font, then 1em is bigger. "ex" is the size of one "x." You can also use percentages "%" 50% is half the size of the current size. 150% is one and a half times the size. The other one is the pica, which is a print unit, that is 12 points. So, like I said at the beginning: it depends. :)
Advantages of pilot conversion?
If the new system fails or malfunctions, the old system is still in operation and hence, there is little to no data loss. It allows the end-users to compare and evaluate the new system's efficiency against the old system. Any users that are new to the system can be trained gradually as the system is implemented.
How much would it cost to get a boiler?
A new boiler will cost about $3000 for a standard efficiency model, but for a more efficient boiler it can run up to $8000 plus. It is important to have a contractor size up your system. If you buy a more efficient system the boiler will not need to be the same size as your old boiler unit. Keep in mind that you location and seasonal demand will affect the price as well. If a contractor is super busy they will likely charge more since they have plenty of jobs lined up in the future.
