Favorite Font?

Anonymous032819 — Fri, 18 Dec 2020 23:25:10 GMT

I tend to use the default font.

But have you ever used another from the list?

Andale Mono

Arial

Arial Black

Batang

Book Antiqua

Comic Sans ND

Courier New

Georgia

Helvetica

Impact

Lucida Sans Unicode

MingLiU

MS POncho

SimSun

Symbol

Tahoma

Terminal

Times New Roman

Trebuchet MS

Verdanda

Webdings

Wingdings

So, do you have a favorite, or do you just use the default?

I always use Verdana here and in my email. I change the font size to 3 as well. I struggle to read some posts that are in brown or red. The tiny font sizes are annoying as well. Will just pass by those.

Just online - no printing Arial

If I'm printing - Garamond ...... uses the least amount of ink.

I just use the default. I've never considered changing it.

I'm a Comic Sans girl in all my communications and documents.

@Anonymous032819 I like Book Antiqua or Batang or Georgia fonts, size 3. I especially like the lower case a and g in these as they mimic my own hand printing when I am not using cursive haandwriting.

I like alphabetic characters that use serifs. I don't like the default print setting at all; it is too small and lacks personality.

@Anonymous032819 - I use Comic Sans MS for everything. When I first started using different fonts way back when, someone told me using that one was not very professional. Good thing I've always been a rebel when it comes to certain things!

I like it when people use different fonts and colors but I typically use the default font, sometimes making it a bit larger.

I use the default font but now check out the others.

I prefer Comic Sans, but I was reading an online article about a font I've never heard of being popular, called Gotham:

Arial and Lucida Sans Unicode are my main choices, as they are much easier for older relatives with vision issues to read.

Arial for documents, recipes, informational material since it is clear, sophisticated and easy to read. Always do in black!

But, my favorite for a very long time for everyday use is Comic Sans MS always in italics for forums, personal notes, email, letters, etc. for it is joyous, fun, expresses a personal touch and I love this font! And always do in blue!

Garamond, but it's not on the list.

I love Georgia. Serif fonts are easier to read in longer paragraphs. Working with typography, I was also warned never to use Comic Sans.

I also love Helvetica for its simple, clean look. They even made a movie about this font.

I will use different fonts for various types of e-mails I send.

But for every day kind of e-mail i.e. QVC it is Arial.
