Tips for web design - Font

Use only fonts that are likely to be installed on your visitors computers and consider the differences between Windows and Mac users fonts.
Use Sans-serif fonts for higher readability on screen.
Use Serif fonts for higher readability on printed paper and/or for page headings.
Use font families to specify an ideal, alternative, common and generic font typeface.
Use monospaced fontfaces to display computer code.
As a general guideline use a maximum of three different fonts on the one webpage. Too many fonts can be confusing and make all harder to read.
