Font size

I've always maxed out font size for people to read easily. Seems like in a lot of places lighting is turned down too low (I know, we're all prettier then, but it can be terribly impractical..) I did make a major find before Christmas - at the local Goodwill there was a whole bin full of new reading glasses for 25 cents a pair. I bought a whole bucket of 'em, take them with me, if someone needs readers for looking at the book, they use those...if they forget to return them I don't care...cost of doing business. I went to a show recently where the book had artist and song title in the same book but the font was probably 8 - far too small to read. My eyes are just too old and my arms aren't long enough!

There is a group of lawyers going around my town suing places for lighting issues. We call them ambiance chasers.

9.5 to 10 - Times New Roman or Arial font seems easiest to read at that size. Oh, I also 'bold' the title in the title section, and 'bold' the artist name in the artist section of the book.
