@font-face size variance and browser compat.

Howdy there guys, this is my first post. Normally Google helps me out here but it is confused here.

What is the workaround when a font applied via @font-face is a different size from its un-replaced normal font? I am trying to display Tahoma on non-compliant browsers and Franklin Gothic on @font-face compliant browsers. The problem is, the Franklin Gothic font is much smaller than Tahoma (and I'm not talking about the condensed version). Is there some sort of non-javascript workaround for manipulating the size of an @font-face replaced font or should I abandon the concept and switch to Cufon?

I don't want to switch to Cufon. The site in question is here: http://nami.fifthtide.com . When viewed on Firefox 3.0 or other non-compliant browsers, the tagline and other replaced fonts are just way too big.

You know what I just discovered?

"font-size-adjust" . This is exactly what I want. So there you go, anyone who stumbles on this thread.
