As a general starting point, we recommend using Arial and Times Roman as base fonts at sizes of 7 points. Text is legible at 6 points, though at this size it can lose some clarity. Large fonts will tend to use up screen space rather rapidly given the maximum document dimensions. 4

A range of fonts and font sizes will display clearly in PDFs on the Sony Reader. As a
general starting point, we recommend using Arial and Times Roman as base fonts at sizes
of 7 points. Text is legible at 6 points, though at this size it can lose some clarity. Large
fonts will tend to use up screen space rather rapidly given the maximum document
dimensions.
