  • can I force non-serif fonts?

    How do I set Firefox to change everything in Times New Roman to another font?

    Options -> Content -> Default Font, but you probably already know that and it only changes the default font (not "everything").

        Someone needs to make a "can I force non-serf to the front?" copycat.

              Too bad you don't use Opera. You can change "everything".

                    There is no difference in serif and sans serif fonts in terms of readability.

                        It's all quite silly. There have been a lot of studies on serif vs sans serif in terms of things that matter (reading speed, comprehension, etc) and there is no difference.

                          Yes there is. At smaller font sizes it's easier to read serif fonts because your eyes follow the dangly parts. Sans-serif fonts look better at larger sizes.
