Dear Dad,

Here is a list of common sans-serif fonts:

Windows
 Macintosh (if Classic not installed)
 Linux
Arial
 Helvitica
 Garuda
Courier New
 Courier
 Freemono
Verdana
 Geneva
 Kalimati
MS Serif
 New York
 Free Serif

I hope this helps, regarding the Mac, if Classic is installed then the Windows fonts will be displayed when requested.

Dear Neville,
The font I use the most is 'Arial'. This comes with 'Windows' OS systems and is also my choice for e-mails. There are many others but 99% of people have got Arial already. I hate 'Times' which seems to be the MS default. Where I can I always change my various software to default to Arial. I haven't yet figured out how to change my Windows Normal template to use Arial instead of Times without having to create a new template. Any geeks out there who can help?

Hi Jack,

Here I have to disagree with you! :-)  I much prefer the look of serif fonts over those sans-serif ones, perhaps because primarily I'm a traditionalist, although not going so far as Old English typefaces I should stress! For scientific illustrations though, yes, maybe fonts like Arial and Helvitica are good.

Next up, if your using Outlook express, simply go to "Tools" then "Options" and find this screen:

Figure 1

You'll be able to change the default font from here.

Best Wishes,

Steven.

Dear Jack,

These are helpful suggestions. Can you give a few examples of common and/or popular non-serif fonts?
