If I use pixels as default unit and dimensions in pixels why can't the font size be in pixels too? Why is there not an option to choose the font unit? Initially I thought I had the font in pixels which in needed for my webdesign template but when I checked the source code using the XML editor I realized it was in points and was just converted. Later on I found this thread and realized that after a long debate the font unit was made in pt. Why can't we choose to make both print people and web people like me happy? An option in the document setting perhaps would work. This way all can be displayed in pixels when need be, not just the document size or units, but also the text. And if print people want pt they could have that too.
