Re: Online fonts and sizes
I have an additional question to on-line fonts and sizes. Is there any study considering the color of the fonts and the color of the background?From practical experience, I can tell you: don't use yellow text on a red background. A magazine article I wrote was printed with these colors, and it was virtually unreadable. After hearing my bellow of outrage and my comments about removing certain extraneous body parts using common household appliances, the editor promised never to use those colors again - not for me, and not for anyone else, either.

"I wanted one more ride, before my time was over,
To feel the wind and hear the diesels roar,
One more ride, to dream when I was younger
But dreams count for nothing anymore."
