I noticed that in chrome and mozilla I have different fonts. In mozilla they are like the letters above. How to make them the same? And, it is very desirable, such as that of windows7 users. (sometimes I type a little and the display is critical)

I have Linux Mint Сinnamon.

FF under Linux has a different default font. Treated in the settings. But before that, you should install the ttf-mscorefonts-installer package (or at least fonts-liberation - these are free fonts very similar in metrics to Arial and Times New Roman)
One-on-one as in win7 will not work, because the font rendering mechanism is different, but However.

Maybe because in FF they pressed ctrl + to increase only the text?

Just noticed in Ubuntu 13.10
font-family: 'Adamina', serif;
In Chrome and Firefox, the font size is different. At font-size:20px, the liver is 4px larger in the fox. When using Arial with fonts, everything is the same. How to take Adamina in this case?
