Description
Set up font scaling for [tf]a-[tf]d
All size settings accept a number (factor) or a dimension (e.g. a size in pt).
- a to d, x and xx are used for \tfa … \tfxx.
- small is e.g. used for footnotes.
- script and scriptscript are used for math.
A default setting looks like:
\definebodyfontenvironment[12pt][ text=12pt, script=9pt, scriptscript=7pt, x=10pt, xx=8pt, big=12pt, small=10pt, ]
The first argument specifies the bodyfont size to which the settings apply. All second parameters are specified in dimensions and tell us more about related sizes.

Examples
Define a new relative size
\definefontsize[e] \definebodyfontenvironment [default] [b=4,e=10] This will be {\tfb really} {\bfe Huge}
yields
Instead of default you can also specify the fontsize you’re working with.
Set the interlinespace for a special font size
This is e.g. useful for multi-line titles.
\definebodyfontenvironment[28pt][interlinespace=38pt]
