I feel that rendering character-by-character via CSS is directly against KaTeX’s… philosophy(?) of keeping stuff fast and simple. The CSS rendering requires creating classes for every Latin character with their metrics encoded in CSS. That’s not sustainable and actually makes rendering worse in the general case by killing kerning (we don’t have it in the katex fonts yet, but we will: #2061).

I am no KaTeX developer, but I have this vague feeling that it might just not be a good idea to be dabbling in these boundaries of visual accessibility.

I have solved this problem. In chrome, we can remove the 12px limit by setting the minimum font size. This is the configuration address: chrome://settings/fonts
