Insights on Text Resizing

Need some insights on the text resizing success criteria of WCAG 2.0. As
per WCAG 2.0, the page should be readable and functional even when the
font size is doubled. In this context, by how much percentage does IE
increases the font size when we change it from medium - larger and
larger - largest using the options provided in text size.



I'm trying to find out, how to quantify the term doubling (200 percent)
the size? Can we measure it? I tried some toolbars for it, but did not
get what I'm looking for. Is there any other better way to look at this?



peace, veiky
