Font knowledge.

I wrote to the Club questioning the use of fonts in the revised magazine and the website. Didn't get a response. It's less of an issue on the screen because we can increase the view size but the magazine is ridiculous,

I would guess its all done by people with good vision on huge monitor screens, they may never see the actual printed article at all... I find it so difficult to read and the content so poor that it pretty much goes straight in the bin, a 2 or 3 min flick through the pics at best....Complete waste of time and paper, in my opinion of course.

When working I wrote many letters to the public either to individuals or for letter drop. I always typed my own rather than draft them for typing. (I remember a boss of mine asking why I chose to type all my memos rather than hand write. I gave him a memo pad and pen and some random text from an office circular to write out whilst I typed at a keyboard. I had finished nine and hit print by the time he was halfway through. I pointed out the other advantage that mine was totally legible and a copy ready to file with a few clicks.)

The reason that I typed my own letters was that standard office font was 12 point. I used 14 point as I new not all were sharp eyed. If it almost fitted on a single page I would often edit so that it did or alternatively adjust text size down to 13.5 point (yes you can).  

The only Font knowledge i have was from decades ago when attending christenings when in church choir,and my sprogs christenings
