Manage size of backup font-family

I am using a custom font on my webpage, and in one specific browser, the font is not showing up. This is fine -- if the custom font doesn't load, the next available font I've set in my CSS is Arial. My problem is that the set font-size of my custom font is 70 pixels. If the custom font doesn't show up, Arial is used and is 70 pixels, which is really, really large. I would like to make it so that, if Arial is used, the font-size is 48 pixels. Is this possible to do through CSS?

Not sure but...... The basic answer to your question is that if a particular font is absolutely necessary then a text replacement technique my be warranted. If not then don't use exact measurements. IMHO the days of pixel counting in mainstream websites is over. Use either percentages or EM's Hope this helps
