Font sizes between Photoshop and Edge - Any Accurate conversion table?

resdesign Oct 23, 2012 8:55 AM

I have been trying to make sense of the font sizes between Photoshop and Edge. It seems that the conversion tables I have found do not actually give the right numbers and I am wondering if there is a table from Adobe that would make it easy to have the right size rather than an approximation.

I prefer to use text in Edge rather than Photoshop for many different reasons one being dynamic text.

For example a font in Photoshop in a 780 x 475 image is 8pt - In Edge, according to conversion tables it should be 11 px but it is totally wrong. It needs to be closer to 30 px to be about the same.

So, Adobe Team, any documentation on that?

By the way, I have to correct the numbers but they still do not make too much sense. The artist gave me a 300 dpi file so of course the px size what wrong. After converting the file to 72 dpi, the font size happens to be 33.33 pt or 40 px which is now way too big in Edge. It looks like the size my just be the same 33.33 pt would be 33.33 px. Is this correct?
