The Font dropdown offers a selection of typefaces.  These Fonts are commonly found on most computers.  It’s possible to use other Fonts that are less common, but we advise you to avoid them. 

 Using uncommon Fonts may cause a page to appear differently than expected,

depending on your visitor's computer.

Below are examples of Fonts offered:

Arial   Calibri   Courier New   Garamond   

Impact   Georgia   Tahoma   Times   Verdana

The Size dropdown offers different font sizes, from 1 to 7. 

This text size is # 2.

 The dropdown is shown in standard Internet sizing as world wide, there are many different computer settings.
