    which size or font?

    Hi, can anyone suggest a font to use as dynamic?
    from what i have read, if i use a font some else doesnt have installed on their pc, then they will see it differently. so what are the default fonts, or a font most viewers are likely to have? tahoma?
    thanks!!

    If you 'embed' the fonts you use, then your viewers will always see what you want.
    Highlight your dynamic text, select 'characters' in the properties inspector, and chose 'all'. That's it.

    Yes it will but not too much. If you can use a font that everyone has then you won't have to embed.
    Common fonts (some):Arial, Veranda, Tahoma, Times New Roman, Courier, ect...
