Hey friends – I'm still relatively new to type design and trying to understand this issue I came across. I'm in the process of redesigning my portfolio website and used my own typeface across the site. I have this underline hover effect that looks perfectly fine across iOS devices yet appears very large on Windows devices (you can see the comparison in the attached images)...This is leading me to believe I've done something wrong on the backend of my typeface for the line height to render larger on Windows perhaps?
Could anyone point me in the right direction of where to look within Robofont on how to fix this issue? I don't even know where to begin!
For those interested in diving deeper, my site is currently hosted at:

Appreciate you taking the time to help me out! That's definitely helpful for me to understand how things are operating. I agree the Windows machine is most likely using different metrics – this at least helps me understand a general area to begin testing. I'll look into WinAscent / WinDescent some more!
Why's that? And yes, I've posted here a few times with proofs. Will continue to share more once I have more work to share
