Hi all,

I am working on defining default Text Styles for Mathcad Prime. We will be adding the option of defining your own text styles as well.

Are there specific text styles that you use in your documents?

What fonts do you tend to use for text?


We are also adding formatting options for math.

Thanks,

Mona

There are some obvious categories of styles, such as heading, subheading, etc, but I think everyone will have different preferences for what those are.

My default font is Tahoma, for the very good reason (in a math package) that you can easily tell the difference between 1, l, I and |.

Arial: 1 l I |

Times New Roman: 1 l I |

Tahoma: 1 l I |

I was just looking into that. Microsoft uses Calibri, which looks nice, but is not good at distinguishing those characters.


And the default text font for Mathcad Prime is already Tahoma! Glad you like it.

We have had the font discussion before
