Good thing you're not an Outlook user so you can keep using your serif font!
Do the people in your local government not realize that they will need to expand their disk storage greatly to compensate for the larger font? -- RMc James Rankin <[email protected]> 06/22/2011 08:34 AM Please respond to "NT System Admin Issues" <[email protected]> To "NT System Admin Issues" <[email protected]> Press this button if the "To" is a fax number. Enter in the fax number like 123-456-7890. cc Subject OT: FontZilla Wow. The local government here in the UK that I work for, despite being in the middle of the deepest cuts for two decades, have decided to use our precious IT resources to.....enforce 14-point Arial as the Outlook font for all users, just so that partially-sighted people can be sure they can read our emails. Amazing. I'm pretty sure eye tests and glasses have been available to all since 1946...yet here we go. It gets better, though. They have also decided to change every single publication and communication that comes out of the council to 14-point Arial, even to the stage where council tax bills will no longer be able to display the address correctly in the envelope window. Which means they will have to shell out for special envelopes right across the board with bigger windows. Great money-saving sense! Rant off.....we all love execs as much as we love users :-) -- "On two occasions...I have been asked, 'Pray, Mr Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?'

The originator of this email is not liable for the transmission of the information contained in this communication. Or are they?
