Inconsistent text size for lists and tables in PDF Exports

[laura_white]

Since switching to the new editor, when we export articles to PDF, the text in numbered lists and table cells are as large as our H3 text---3 times larger than the text in normal paragraphs.

It's a big problem, because when our sales team needs to send a prospect a PDF of an article, it looks unprofessional.

Please make text sizes consistent - even when text is in a list or a table.

HI @laura_white and welcome to the Community

Presuming you're using a stock, unmodified Confluence PDF exporter, you can try and see if the recently announced updates to the PDF exporter could help.

Also, try playing around with 'Compact density' option, this was designed for legacy content transition.

More about that here.
