Using Fonts
Many software programs include a
Font
command that lists the available fonts.
Usually you’ll select the text and apply the font (or include the font as part of a style
definition). See the user’s guide for the program you’re using to find out how to select
fonts for your text.

■
TrueType fonts, which are fonts that can be scaled to different sizes and that look
exactly the same on your computer screen and on the printed page.
