  6. Sans Serif Fonts should always be used for text and headings of more than one line. Some good choices are: Verdana Tahoma Antique OliveArial

  8. Font Size • 48 pt for headings • 40 pt for body of slide • 32 pt is minimum size to be used • Smaller is fine for your own notes such as page numbers
