I used Konqueror -> Settings -> Configure Konqueror... -> Appearance -> Font
size. I didn't recognize Konqueror -> Settings -> Configure Konqueror... ->
Fonts. If the latter is the place to configure the font size, what is the
Appearance -> Font size setting for? Why isn't the actual font size changed
when changing Appearance -> Font size?
In addition, the font size is too large as I already mentioned. After
experimenting a bit with the X server's -dpi switch I've come to the
conclusion that Konqueror's HTML viewer doesn't honor the X server's dpi
setting but always assumes 100 dpi instead. So if you start the X server
with -dpi 100, Konqueror works correctly. If you start the X server without
the -dpi switch (as it is the default with KDM in Debian now), you get a
setting of 75 dpi. This results in the HTML text being displayed (100 dpi -
75dpi) / 75 dpi = 33 % too large and you have to set Fonts -> Medium font
size to 8 in order to get a font size of approximately 11.
Best wishes,
Wolfgang
