Use Standard Fonts If the Notebook/Command Set file you are creating is to be distributed to other people, remember to use standard fonts for the topics. There is no point in using the very pretty ‘Garamond Whizzy’ font for all your topics if you are the only person to have that font installed on your Macintosh. In general, sticking with Chicago, Geneva, Helvetica, Palatino and Times should be a safe bet.
