Typeface

It is recommended that you stick to the most commonly used typefaces. These include Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, Serif, Sans-serif and Times New Roman.

Set three to four typefaces in FONT tags or Cascading Style Sheet settings. So when your first typeface selection is not available, your second, third or fourth selection can be used by the user's browser.

It is quite common to select one typeface for headings and sub-headings and a different one for the main content body text.
