Style Sheets Font Size

[Skittle]

I have decided the perfect look for listed data in html tables on my intranet site. I now want to set up the text sizes and fonts in a style sheet so I can assign the look to
a table row class.

The problem is that the font size on a style sheet does not equate to the font size definition embedded in the code.

In my embedded table 'font' definitions I have sepecified <FONT SIZE=&quot;2&quot;> or <FONT SIZE=&quot;1&quot;> yet in style sheets
font size uses different size characteristics. They use size measurements or a text description such as 'x-small'.
I have tried the text descriptions but none seem to match a font size of 1 or 2 for my selected font of Arial.

How do I convert <FONT SIZE=&quot;2&quot;> to a size measurement in a style sheet?
There must be a conversion table or a formula. I have not been able to find any examples of what a font measurement looks like in my HTML books.
