Internet Explorer 4.x Windows vs. Macintosh |
|
|
|
Below are screen shots comparing some of the elements we have looked at in this website. First and formost, fonts. For both of the following screenshots, IE 4.x was set to display Times New Roman Medium. Note that IE does not use point sized fonts like most other programs, but rather scaled fonts (small, medium, large). An especially interesting note is the fact that IE on the Mac does not seem to leave a line space after the embedded table like the Windows version and all the Netscape versions. |

In general fonts of the same point size *display* about two to three point sizes smaller on the Macintosh platform. Or, if you like, two to three point sizes larger on a Windows machine. Since Internet Explorer does not use point sized fonts, this translates to approximately one “scale” difference. So the Large font setting on IE for the Mac causes the page to appear approximately the same as using the Medium font setting on Windows.
