Hi, Mary! Oh yes, Julie is definitely right! <Smile> It's been a while since I've played with them, but I do remember that quite a few of them did not read well! I've read books that recommend the Courier font for creating documents in Word that read well, but I think Times New Roman and other common fonts will work okay, too.

Clearly, those horrid cursive-looking fonts are an ocr nightmare, and I'd like to see them banned from books, at least those I want to scan. <smile> > But I have never heard of a particular fancy font or script-wanna-be font causing a problem for a screen reader. Font size can be a problem, if its really large or really small. I've definitely heard of that, and I think it has > to do with lines and what the screen readers expect with respect to spacing, but I'm honestly not sure. Anyway, I'm not saying a screen reader wouldn't have the problem you describe. but I've never heard anybody > complain about it. > Mary > > >
