I am writing a document that is supposed to be typeset in Time New Roman or equivalent. The problem I have is that 12pt in font A is not the same as 12pt in font B. So is there a conversion table of some sort? Or can I calculate the ratio myself?? Specifically I would like to know the ratios for Adobe Caslon Pro and Warnock Pro.
PS: I am using XeLaTeX with fontspec.

Fontspec can do this for you. The
Scale
option allows you to match the new font to the lower- or uppercase of the default font. It also allows you to scale manually. Here is an example using Times New Roman and Latin Modern.To scale your main font, you can set it twice: (once for the font to be matched and once to actually set your font)
