Issue descriptionChrome Version: 55.0.2883.75 (64-bit) OS Versions: openSUSE 42.1 w/ KDE3 Debian 8 (Jessie) w/ TDE URLs (if applicable) : https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/advanced-font-settings/caclkomlalccbpcdllchkeecicepbmbm http://www.w3.org/2003/07/30-font-size Other browsers tested: Not applicable What steps will reproduce the problem? 1.open Chromium on 120 DPI Linux desktop 2.open settings 3.click on show advanced settings 4.click on customize fonts 5.choose font size very large 6.click on advanced font settings What is the expected result? legible text describing what the extension will do if installed, and how to proceed with its installation (adequate size, as specified in browser settings as the baseline for page content; and good contrast between text and background) What happens instead of that? tiny gray text (note that UI text size is vastly larger than virtually all text within the viewport, and has respectable color contrast due to black text color on white background) Please provide any additional information below. 1.proverbial chicken and egg problem: fonts are illegible, but the instructions on how to deal with the problem of illegible fonts are illegible. 2.I know how to use zoom, but neither I nor anyone else should have need of it. Page content can and should embrace the users predetermined optimal size, as configured in the browser settings for default sizes. This disrespect for users and their settings is completely unjustified. CSS provides em, rem, % and other means to size page objects that can and should be used to embrace the defaults. CSS that includes px units to size text abuses users.
