Guidelines forWeb Usage
Fonts
The preferred font for departmental navigation and body text is Verdana, but sans-serif fonts such as Arial and Helvetica are optional alternates.
The preferred font for page headers (<h2>, <h3>, etc.) is Georgia, but serif fonts such as Times are optional alternates.
Verdana and Georgia are the default font styles that should be used within the university's website templates.
Font Sizes
Font sizes should be set using relative units such as ems (preferred) or percentages, so that users can resize text. Pixels (px) should be avoided since users will not be able to resize text in Internet Explorer. Points (pt) are intended for print media only, and should never be used.
