I am modifying a website that has a lot of formatting right in the page. I'm
am removing all formatting and linking to a style sheet.

I have found that where text has been formatted to 1(8pt) within the
FrontPage GUI, it becomes slightly larger when it references a style that
specifies 8pt.

Any ideas? (I'd like the font to be on the smaller side)

Don't use print sizes for web fonts. Instead of points (which are
inch/based) use pixels, ems, ens, exs, percents, or font size names (all of
which work on pixels).

There's really no way to know exactly what is happening as long as you stick
with points.

If you use a different font in your stylesheet it may be slightly larger
than the font used in the page.
