7. XP New Perspectives on Microsoft Office Word 2003 Tutorial 5 7 Use fonts appropriately to add interest to a document Word's default font is Times New Roman. Because it was specifically designed for narrow newspaper columns, a wider font might be more appropriate for some documents. Sometimes you might want to use a more elegant or flamboyant font to set a striking tone for a document. Times New Roman is a serif font, meaning it has small lines that embellish the characters. Sans serif fonts are plainer, without the embellishments.

8. XP New Perspectives on Microsoft Office Word 2003 Tutorial 5 8 Some font guidelines There are several general practices to follow when selecting fonts for their documents. You should: –Use a serif font for the main text –Use a sans serif font in titles or headings, but not the main text –Avoid using all uppercase text, especially sans serif uppercase. Mixed uppercase and lowercase letters are easier to read –Avoid unusual or fancy fonts except for special circumstances like certificates or invitations –Don't change fonts or font attributes (bold, italic, etc.) too often –Don't overuse special effects like outline or shadows

10. XP New Perspectives on Microsoft Office Word 2003 Tutorial 5 10 Use fonts effectively The proper use of fonts can make a dramatic difference in the appearance of a document.

Do not overuse font attributes such as bold and italic. Constantly changing the attributes also makes a document hard to read.
