Sometimes, I think people use alternative fonts simply to be different, fancy, etc., not so much that it makes it a better experience for the user. I think the font that you currently use is by far the best on that front.Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15949946977793864054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33294007.post-48003589910727198142020-09-26T11:44:56.970+00:002020-09-26T11:44:56.970+00:00I can see them on my iPad Belinda.

I wasn't aware this was afoot when I moved to WordPress. I'm getting used to the different formatting there, I've liked its a bit different from what I was used to. The difference though is that I opted to make the change and everyone using blogger didn't.<br /><br />re the typefaces, I love there is a courgette one too. My two picks from your list would be paprika and Monserrate. Enjoy picking yours and any other options you now have.

Pictures are a particular bugbear, but my last but one post ended up with a whole range of fonts, sizes and formats. I suspect this was particularly bad as I had started it before the new version was imposed on me. My favourite font?
