Ahh, your actual items (the items coming from the remote site) have that actual HTML code in them, that's why :)

Change %DESCRIPTION% to %DESCRIPTIONPLAIN% temporarily to see what I mean. It's the content provider overriding the font with included <font> tags. This is a rather weird / nasty thing to do in feeds, I imagine they are trying to brand / protect the content in some way.

Thank you for the prompt reply. The problem is that I can't determine how that or where that style is being applied. As I said, it showed up seemingly on it's own, with all my FDs. The FD for this particular digest (MDBNMZKF4) has no such font declaration: http://fd2005.feeddigest.com/digest/html/65257
It seems to be applied after publication somehow.

You have full control over the code that goes around or the HTML code within your digest and can edit this online or at your own site, so you can specify any size you wish for any section. One thing I notice is that all of your items start with this code:

The font-size: 85% will be reducing the font size. You can go into your FD control panel, edit your digest, and change this code.

The size of the headline font changed recently for no apparent reason - it is now smaller than the size of the rest of the feed item. How can I change it back to the regular size? Here is an example:
