I installed it and when I went back to PowerPoint, I had two options: <strong>bold</strong> and <em>italic</em>. So, where’s semi-bold? A quick search found that it’s a MS-Office problem. A hack around it was to remove all other variations of the bold font, except for the semi-bold. This would be great unless I wanted to use the actual bold font. My solution was to rename the Semi-Bold Raleway font and install it as a “new” font.</p> https://developrx.com/posts/how-to-create-a-screen-readable-pdf/Sat, 15 Nov 2014 05:55:48 +0000https://developrx.com/posts/how-to-create-a-screen-readable-pdf/<p>AFTER DISSECTING A FEW online magazines, I came up with a reasonable copy for readable online PDFs.</p> <p><strong>FONTS &amp; FONT SIZES</strong></p> <ul> <li><strong>Title Font:</strong> 20th Century MT Condensed Extra Bold, 36 pt, Blue (R68-G84-R106)</li> <li><strong>Subtitle Font:</strong> Arial, 18 pt, Blue (R68-G84-R106), Spacing After 8 pt</li> <li><strong>Base Font:</strong> Open Sans, 11 pt, Black, Spacing: Single</li> </ul> <p><img src="https://developrx.com/posts/how-to-create-a-screen-readable-pdf/_images/Square3_thumb.png" alt="Square3_thumb"></p>
