CSS font size why it doesn't match

I work with graphics that make layout in Photoshop, like everything here. I like to know why, palatino font 14pt / 20pt is one way 100% on screen ...

and the same exact measurement is more in firefox, after entering the same css information in the WordPress stylesheet ...

#maintext p {
 font-family: "Palatino", "Book Antiqua", serif;
 font-size: 14pt;
 line-height: 20pt;
}
