Hello,
I am instructing my users to use the Arial font for website documents
for 508 compliance. I have noticed it is a little smaller than Verdana.
I have been using it because it is acessible but also save file space. I
did review the information on Web-Aim.

I wanted to find out what others are using for web/508 accessible
fonts or the industry standard.
