Our site does not set the font or the text size. Many web sites do. Some web designers even use fixed text sizes, which means you can't increase the text size unless you force it.

Font TestHere four lines that show the difference between a fixed width font and a variable width font. Lower-case i and l are the narrowest letters. Upper-case M and W are the widest. You can see the narrow letters take up exactly as much space as the wide ones in the fixed-width font but much less space than the wide ones in the variable width font.

Fixed (Courier):
Variable (Arial): Here are four more lines. We set the font in the first three.
