FONTS & TYPEFACES

 

A font is the shape of a particular set of text characters. Each font has its own name.

 

There are probably dozens of different fonts available on the computer that you are using now. If you would like to use any of these fonts, Signpac can create a sign using it. If you would like a wider choice, Signpac has many more fonts for you to choose from.

 

Sanserif fonts (the ones with no feet) are usually used for headings, Some sanserif fonts that you might consider are arial, helvetica, lucida sans, verdana and trebuchet.

 

Serif fonts (with feet) are mostly used for body text. Some serif fonts that you might consider are times, courier, garamond and book antiqua.

 

You can use two fonts on one sign but more than two usually make the sign "too busy" and difficult to read.
