Fonts for body text

Body text is read in long stretches and at a small size, so the best font is the one you stop noticing. Look for open letters that are easy to tell apart, an even rhythm and a generous height of the lowercase letters.

Paste a real paragraph in the preview above the list and read it for a minute instead of only glancing at it. A font that looks good in a heading can tire the eye in a column of text.
