Hello,
I am currently working on an online help system. In school we talked about
using serif fonts for text and san serif for heading, etc. for looks and
readability. I always thought that this carried over to the e-text as well.
I have been hearing that studies say that sanserif is easier or better when
looking at e-texts. Any one have answers?
