Comments welcome. I’m inspecting visual readability, font sizes first and then fonts. (And thanks to Wikipedia for the pangrams (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pangram)).</span></span><br/><br/><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: Georgia;"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 12pt;">Default font, which as best I can tell is specified as Verdana, Arial, sans-serif. More on this below.</span></span><br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 8pt;">Jived fox nymph grabs quick waltz. (8 pt)</span><br/>Glib jocks quiz nymph to vex dwarf. (default size, 10 pt I believe)<br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 10pt;">Sphinx of black quartz, judge my vow. (10 pt)</span><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 12pt;">How vexingly quick daft zebras jump! (12 pt)</span><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 14pt;">The five boxing wizards jump quickly. (14 pt)</span><br/><br/><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: Georgia;"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 12pt;">Okay, verified that the default here is 10 pt. My eyes are better with 12 pt so I’m staying with that – partly why I’m doing this. Now let’s try those three fonts. Staying with one pangram for this.</span></span><br/><br/><table class="bbc_table"><tbody><tr><td>  <span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 12pt;"><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: verdana;">Sphinx of black quartz, judge my vow.

I’ll look at this again in other Windows browsers and modify this remark accordingly. Chrome renders the Verdana different from the Arial and sans-serif. How does Safari on a Mac or iPad render those?</span></span><br/><br/><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: Georgia;"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 12pt;">And just for giggles, the 10 fonts offered in the toolbar above, with one pangram again for comparison</span></span><br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 12pt;"><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: courier;">Sphinx of black quartz, judge my vow.

(Comic Sans MS)</span></span><br/><br/><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: Georgia;"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 12pt;">And there you have this little experiment. My suggestion, now that we know how to format, pick your fonts and sizes for your reader. A little added effort goes a long way.</span></span><br/>
