Comment:

I always wondered why in Techniques for WCAG 2.0 there are three different techniques (c12, c13 and c14) for the same problem, ie how to specify text font size.

My proposal is to merge them together in a single technique

Proposed Change:
A new technique that will merge c12,c13 and c14.
Its procedure will be:

1) Check that the value of the CSS property that defines the font size is a percentage.
2) Check that the value of the CSS property that defines the font size is one of xx-small, xx-small, x-small, small, medium, large, x-large, xx-large, xsmaller, or larger.
3) Check that the value of the CSS property that defines the font size is expressed in em units.


Expected Results

Check #1 or Check #2 or Check #3 is true
