Assignment 3
(Change font face and size)
In this lesson you will be learning about font faces (styles) and sizes. There
are basically three different types of font styles and they are listed below:
Serif: A serif is the straight line (or feet as I call them) that appear
at the bottom of letters specifically the f, l, n, h. Font styles that are serif
include
- Times New Roman
- Courier New
- Bell MT
Sans Serif: These are fonts without the feet at the bottom of the letters.
Font styles that are sans serif include:
- Arial
- Comic Sans MS
- Franklin Gothic Book
Script: These are fonts that look like a person's handwriting. They
usually appear smaller, so it is usually necessary to use a larger font size
when using script font. Font styles that are script include:
- Cotillion
- French Script
- Bradley Hand ITC
Font Size is obviously the size of the font. The large the number is
the larger the size of the font. Be aware that the size varies according to
the font style you have selected. So a 12 pt. in Times New Roman may not be
the same as a 12 pt. in French Script.
To change font size or style, you must first select or highlight the necessary
words. For font style you then select the style by using the black down arrow
where is currently says Times New Roman. To select the size you use the black
down arrow where is currently says 12. If you need a size that does not appear
on the list, simple type in the number and press ENTER.
You may also change font size and style by clicking on FORMAT, FONT and using
that screen.
