Text Size Is Different in Ie and Firefox

Why is font-size: 16px bigger in Internet Explorer 11 than in FireFox?

The browsers are using different font faces. You can see this by comparing the glyphs. For example, the letter “l” is clearly different. The font size is the same, but the font designs are different. It is up to font designer to decide how big glyphs are relative to the font size.

Font looks different in IE than it does in Firefox and Chrome...why?

Define a font size style:

<style type="text/css">
body{ font-size:medium; }
</style>

You could try to define in pixels too for more consistency:

<style type="text/css">
body{ font-size:10px; }
</style>

Code would go in your html <head>
