Legibility

The web browser I now use is Firefox version 1.5.
This latest version has a new function that enables me to choose the basic font of a web page. I had a slight dissatisfaction in the old version's basic font, and I wanted to change it to the one which is more legible.

On a computer screen, the font that is like calligraphy is not so legible than the font that is like pen-written. Simple font appears better on a screen.
But, since I can change the font in this new version, I finally found a satisfying solution for this problem.

Beautifully written. I haven't much experimented with fonts on my blog, but in printing out things for my newspaper I use lots of different ones. There are so many--it is fun to see how different they appear from each other.

Yes, I also like seeing many fonts.
Letters are sometimes really artistic.
