This strongly suggests that you have very little understanding of what HTML.
It's a poor lonesome data format.

I'd like a piece of text to be sized at 32 point at a screen
resolution of 1024x768, and 42 point at 1280x1024. Can this be done?

Under some serious caveats, it can, but definitely not in HTML.

But it's a clueless idea.

wrath of contributors here to ask the question and learn something.
Shame that it seems unwise to do so. I'd better abandon this question
right now.
