Look at your code view
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Tahoma">
This is 10 pt Tahoma written in word and copied into FrontPage.
</SPAN></P>
<FONT face=Tahoma size=2>This is 10 pt Tahoma written in FrontPage</FONT>
The 1st one is using a span style w/ 10pt - no html formatting
The 2nd one is using a html font size 2 (default is usually 10 pt)
- until the user changes their browser using View Text Size
