Applications that use gtkhtml wont let you set a default font size
Applications that use gtkhtml wont let you set a default font size, such applications like gnucash etc, what happens when you goto use the print-report function of these apps and you are forced to print in 10 point html?
gtkhtml-properties.c:#define DEFAULT_FONT_SIZE 10
gtkhtml-properties.c:#define DEFAULT_FONT_SIZE_PRINT 10
there is no way to change this without recompiling the code, however it does not compile under debian because of a broken build script that does not detect some utility called GAIL
Further more, gnome's "control center" font config does not have any effect on fonts generated by gtkhtml
Instead I suggest that you move onto what looks like an excellent replace to gnucash kmymoney2 which is available in current debian-testing and sarge, kmymoney2 sounds better already because it comes from a more robust development environment that is not based on a fragmented poor excuse for a UI library
from the #gnucash irc channel on irc.gimp.org
dgtlmoon: please also note that the page you linked above is not completely correct... the problem is more involved than changing a simple #define, of course... btw, i have no clue what gnucash has to do with gail, but well
