[TxMt] Multimarkdown CSS font-size not being respected on export

I now use Textmate for all my drafting, and when I need to share a
draft with someone I simply e-mail as plain text or export an RTF for
better printing. I'm using Multimarkdown so that I can link to
established style sheets hosted on my personal website.
I've tweaked the "Convert to RTF" command in the MMD bundle to export
to Nisus Writer Express -- I'm hoping to develop a script or command
which will automatically create an appropriate header (based on some
variable, I'm not sure yet) -- but I was having the same problem in
TextEdit.
What's that problem? Even though I've got "font-size: 12pt;"
literally littered everywhere in the CSS file (see below), I'm seeing
16pt type either on direct export or if I preview in Textmate's built-
in browser and then copy and paste out to an RTF editor.
The CSS involved is like this:
@page
{
size: auto;
margin: 1in 1.5in 1in 1.5in;
orphans: 2;
widows: 2;
}
body
{
font-family: "Gentium Basic";
orphans: 2;
widows: 2;
font-size: 12pt;
}
h1
{
letter-spacing: 2pt;
font-weight: bold;
font-variant: uppercase;
margin-top: 4em;
page-break-after: avoid;
font-size: 12pt;
}
etc.
What am I doing wrong?
