Problems with CSS styles displaying in wrong size

[Anne]

Have set up a page in Dreamweaver for client to edit using Contribute 3.0.
Have limited the page so that they can only use 4 CSS styles. When I test
the page in Contribute and insert a new table row and then insert new text,
I choose from the available CSS styles for my text. However, I'm finding
that the displayed font is smaller than it should be. In fact, if I have
first inserted a new row, and then copy and paste a block of text from a
section that is displaying fine, when I paste it into the new row it again
reduces the font sizes. When I click on the correct and incorrect sections
of text Contribute shows that they are both using the same CSS styles but
clearly they are not. Any ideas?

Also, is there some way to remove the 'normal' style from the list of
available styles as I don't want this to be available to them?

Update - have managed to solve this myself. I also noticed this problem was
occurring within Dreamweaver. Was using ems and have changed to pixels and
the problem has now gone. Anyone know why using ems doesn't ensure
consistency in the displayed size? I was recently encouraged to change to
using ems for accessibility reasons but this has put me off - any other
negatives I should be aware of?

Still would appreciate advice as to any way to remove 'normal' style from
list of available styles.

Thanks
