Re: [docbook-apps] Body Font Size

["Bob Stayton" <bobs@sagehill.net>]

I wanted to record the closure of this item for the archive.  I communicated directly 
with Giuseppe about the details of this problem.  It turned out to be an issue with 
the size of the legalnotice text, which for books is determined by the titlepage 
specification file, not the body font size.  For the body of the document, the 12pt 
from body.font.master was working properly.
