 <P>A computed value is in principle ready to be used, but a user agent
 may not be able to make use of the value in a given environment. For

+<P>A computed value is in principle ready to be used, but a user agent
+may not be able to make use of the value in a given environment. For
+example, a user agent may only be able to render borders with integer
+pixel widths and may therefore have to approximate the computed
+width. The actual value is the computed value after any approximations
+have been applied.
 
 <P>In most cases, elements inherit actual values. However, there are
 some properties whose specified or computed values may be inherited
-(e.g., the number value for the <span
+(e.g., the <span class="propinst-font-size">'font-size'</span>
+property and the number value for the <span
 class="propinst-line-height">'line-height'</span> property). The
 definition of a property whose actual value is not what other elements
 inherit will clearly say so.
