Version: Apprunner Build: 2000032305 Platform: Mac Other Platforms:Need to check on Windows and Linux. Expected Results: The Font element (size attribute) should be applied to enclosed text. What I got: The font element is closed early because of a improperly closed A. Steps to reproduce: 1) Open attached test case in Apprunner. This test case was distilled from weather.com. 2) The font element is using the SIZE attribute assigned a "1" value. 3) This size is applied to the first and second lines only. The third line is render at the default size. 4) The problem is with the second line. The A is closed inside FONT instead of outside. This apparent closes the beginning font element.
