Keep in mind that Gtk decided that CSS was a convenient standard for describing style information and adopted a subset of it for its use. That’s not the same as the W3C’s recommendations for HTML style that also happen to be expressed with CSS. Your example is apt: Both use the CSS font-family attribute, but with HTML one can specify multiple arguments of decreasing specificity and the render engine will find a “best fit”. With Gtk you specify exactly one and either it’s available and used or it’s not available and Gtk falls back on its default.

Regards,
John Ralls
