--- we scale the requested size as though the value in the font was
--- specified in the requested unit.
+ --- From @zhouyan:
+
+ --- Let P be the asked size in pt, and Aᵤ = CᵤP, where u is the
+ --- designed unit, pt, bp, or dd, and
+ ---
+ --- Cpt = 1, Cbp = 7200/7227, Cdd = 1157/1238.
+ ---
+ --- That is, Aᵤ is the asked size in the desired unit. Let D be the
+ --- de-sign size (assumed to be in the unit of bp) as reported by
+ --- the font (divided by 10; in all the following we ignore the
+ --- factor 2^16 ).
+ ---
+ --- For simplicity, consider only the case of exact match to the
+ --- design size. That is, we would like to have Aᵤ = D. Let A′ᵤ = αᵤP
+ --- and D′ = βD be the scaled values used in comparisons. For the
+ --- comparison to work correctly, we need,
+ ---
+ --- Aᵤ = D ⟺ A′ᵤ = D′ ,
+ ---
+ --- and thus αᵤ = βCᵤ. The fix in PR 400 is the case of β = 1. The
+ --- fix for review is β = 7227/7200, and the value of αᵤ is thus
+ --- correct for pt, bp, but not for dd.
