### Fonts & Colors

#### Fonts for:

Normally, web pages are displayed in the default font set by your browser or in a font chosen by the web pages' authors.

To change the default fonts:

1. From the "Fonts for" drop-down list, choose a character set. For instance, to set default fonts for the Western (Roman) character set, choose "Western".
2. Select whether proportional text should be serif (like "Times New Roman") or sans-serif (like "Arial"). Then specify the font size you want for proportional text.
3. Specify the font to use for Serif, Sans-serif and Monospace fonts. You can also change the size for Monospace fonts.

You can also specify the display resolution, which is normally 96 dpi.

Finally, you can set the minimum font size to be used on screen. This can be useful on some sites that uses very small fonts that are barely readable.
