Not Mayrie, but either is acceptable, especially if one is preferred in a
partnership. As a dyslexic, and sighted person, however, I have to say Times
New Roman is easier and I am less likely to miss an OCR error confusing the
number one, the lower case l and the upper case I, so I switch to TNR when
starting to proofread.
