Easy Ways to Collect Email SubscribersIf you’re looking for tips about how to grow an email list, you’ve come to the right place. We asked a handful of business owners and marketing experts for their go-to tips and tools for collecting email addresses they can then use to generate new leads, and stay in touch with existing customers.Here are some easy ways to collect email addresses so you can build a valuable list.1. Make sure there’s something in it for them (and never, ever, spam)Think about the emails you open and those you delete immediately. I’m guessing you don’t open any email that you don’t believe will benefit you or your business in some way. So when you ask for a customer’s email, make sure you are offering them something valuable in exchange. Whether it’s a coupon or early access to a new product or sale, an ebook or other piece of thoughtful content, or the chance to win a prize, when you ask for someone’s email, make sure there’s something valuable in it for them. ~ Jim Belosic, CEO, ShortStack.2. Offer useful resources“Offer ‘knowledge products’ as a way to gather email addresses, including interviews with industry leaders, tips, presentations. The resources also give me information to offer in slide presentations at my speaking engagements. I also include the verbiage, ‘If you found this email useful, please forward it on to a friend,’ to every email, which has grown my list by 50 percent.” ~ John Paul Engel, Knowledge Capital Consulting and Project Be The Change.3. Use Facebook ads“Without question, the most affordable and cost-effective way to grow a list of leads for email marketing is through Facebook ads. We’ve easily made 7 figures in sales in the past 12 months by using direct targeted Facebook ads to capture leads (name and email). The user base for Facebook is at an all-time high, and the age range of its users is ideal for most businesses these days. The user base ages 30-55+ has seen massive growth while the age group 13-25 has dropped off significantly.Whether you are a solopreneur, a medium-sized business, or a large corporation, Facebook is an amazingly powerful way to capture new leads. With even a modest budget you capture dozens of new leads every day. And the best part is that these are leads that are pre-disposed to buy what you sell. You can target them very specifically based on their age, geographic location, behaviors, and even their online purchase history.Our company grossed well into 7 figures in sales, just from Facebook leads alone. On average, we capture anywhere from 50-150 leads per day using targeted Facebook ads. The good times will only last for so long before the user base moves on to something new. Now is the time to dive in full force and strike while the iron is hot.” ~ Corey Robert, Marketing Director of Black Card Books Publishing.4. Offer free tutorial videos“At Deskbright, we collect e-mail addresses to use for marketing purposes by offering free Excel tutorials and lessons via e-mail for our users. We’ve developed a huge corpus of free content online, which draws users through referrals from other websites and a solid organic search presence. Visitors who find our free articles helpful can sign up to receive more information and classes via e-mail as we update our site and add content. Our users get to keep up-to-date on the latest free content available on our site, and we get to collect valuable e-mail addresses to market our paid products.” ~ Sam McIntire, founder of Deskbright.5. Promote your newsletter signup throughout your website“I collect email addresses through newsletter signup which I include throughout my website. The location I get the most sign ups are from a popup on my blog but visitors can also sign up if they select a box on any form. Putting it in front of visitors is the best way you can do it, so any opportunity you have, put an option to sign up in front of visitors. My favorite tool is Mailchimp because it ties in well with WordPress websites and the management of subscribers and campaigns is extremely easy. It makes it easy to create beautiful newsletters and send out my newest blog posts automatically. I have used contests in the past to gather subscribers but if this method is used, make sure entrants are able to opt in/out of your newsletter or else you will get many unqualified subscribers who aren’t really interested in what you have to say.” ~ Nick Leffler, personal branding expert.6. Get personal“Rather than sending out mass mailings to your whole database, segment your lists based on the recipients’ interests. For example, if you are a pet food wholesaler and you have a database for cat owners, you can send a mailer to that database with details of a special cat offer on your website. It’s always useful to build the demographics of your database so you can do more effective marketing through segmentation.Think of this as a “boutique” mailing. Handpick a small list of people with whom you want to develop a relationship. For example, people who fit the profile and persona of your perfect client. You’re not shot-gunning a message to thousands of strangers here, you’re picking out just the right ones, because you know they will love doing business with you, and they are right in your wheelhouse. Make sure the piece you send them is highly personalized, so they’ll never forget it. With today’s variable data digital printers, how much you can personalize a mailer is limited only by how much you know about the recipient. Don’t settle for just personalizing their name in the salutation; include their company name and what type of business they are right in your message.” ~ Victor Clarke, Be Better Do More.7. Use popups to promote special offers“The strongest email collection method we’ve experimented with is utilizing lightbox popups. Since email opt-in forms are usually nested in a site’s footer or sidebar, lightbox popups make it very easy for users to subscribe to your emails if they choose. We’ve seen success with including strong offers, such as exclusive discounts, in our lightbox popups. We’ve also learned a lot through channel segmentation and experimenting with different lightbox popups depending on how the user got to our site.” ~ Randy Stocklin is the Co-Founder and CEO of One Click and its three global eyewear brands: Readers.com, Sunglass Warehouse, and felix + iris.8. Host contests!“We have had amazing success lately with running giveaway contests. Every month we give away a cash prize of 250-500 dollars as well as 5-10 items from our store. We do a ton of promotion on social media and have been averaging over 100 new sign ups a day. The fantastic part about this is we use a platform so when the customer enters they get extra points for social sharing it across their network. The results have been off the charts!” ~ Candice Galek, CEO and Founder, BikiniLuxe.9. Make it really easy“In addition to collecting address at all points of contact, put out signs announcing your ‘text to join’ info, add sign up boxes to your website and all social profiles and be sure to be vigilant about collecting cards when out networking. When you receive a card, be sure to ask the person if they want to be added to your email list – do not add any cards you receive, without asking. It all comes down to remembering that these are PEOPLE, not just email addresses, and treating them respectfully – as you would any customer, in real life!” ~ LisaMarie Dias of LisaMarie Dias Designs works with business owners to leverage social media for profitable growth.10. Offer free resources that are relevant to your target customer“Provide something of value to your target customer, for free, and in an immediately consumable format — such as a downloadable report or e-book. It is important that the product you provide in exchange for the person’s e-mail address be relevant to your target customer, otherwise you may be collecting e-mail addresses from people who will likely never become a customer of yours. The product itself must be relatively short, and relieve a person’s immediate pain point. Some examples –• Do you operate an indoor playground in Tacoma, WA? Offer a “5 things to do with your kids on a rainy day in Tacoma, WA” guide (and include your business as one of the places to visit).• Are you a real estate professional in Phoenix, AZ? Offer a “10 housing trends in Phoenix, AZ that every homebuyer needs to know” report.Reports like this are great, as they not only provide immediate value to your potential customer, but the content of the guides can easily be shared across all of your web presence and social media platforms, allowing you to get more bang for your buck!” ~ Tim Maciejewski, a digital media and marketing expert who helps Real Estate Professionals to build their businesses.11. When all else fails, be proactive and track it down“Let them give it to you! Traditionally speaking, an individual who ends up on our site is there for a specific reason. They are interested in our products or our content. If your products and content are good enough, you can charge a toll. The toll, in this case, is their email address! Whether it be by requiring an email when making a purchase, or providing an email to continue reading an informative article, this is one of the best ways to naturally get a list of email addresses correlated to your clients. You can also seek them out on social media or on their personal website. You would be surprised to see how many people include their emails on their LinkedIn, their Twitter, and their personal websites.” ~ Matthew Mercuri, digital marketing manager at Dupray, Inc. a manufacturer of steam-cleaning appliances.12. Gate your content“As a B2B company, we always need to find different ways to obtain leads. Doing more than just cold calling, sourcing lists and attending events, we have content as the backbone to our entire marketing strategy. Two surefire ways that we have found to collect existing customer information and new leads, is through our gated content and surveys. Our gated content includes webinars, ebooks, whitepapers, and guides.We host 4 webinars every month, all of which are gated. meaning people need to input their email contact information to register. We use On24 for these purposes and then input them into our Salesforce account.For our ebooks, white papers, and guides, we have about one “large” piece like this every 2/3 months. We set up both a gated and non-gated landing page: gated for our non-existing clients to input their information and ungated for existing clients who we already have their info. We create the forms for these landing pages so a customer profile is automatically created for each lead so that we can track what they click on and download.We also have found surveys to be a very effective way to obtain email addresses. We do surveys to help us create future content pieces down the road (infographics, guides, blogs, etc.), and as an incentive offer the people the chance to win a gift card if they input their information. We have found this to be very successful in allowing us to obtain new emails. They key is to distribute in more than just your database. We use onsite events, social media, and our partner network to distribute the survey so that we are getting new participants to add to our database!” ~ Kristen Carvalho, Sr. Content & Social Media Manager, etouches.13. Ask for it!“We run a high-tech company but our approach to collecting email addresses from our customers is distinctly low-tech, we ask them for it when they purchase a product or service. We’ve converted to a fully paperless customer experience so project estimates, progress updates, invoices, and receipts are all done through email. The very next question for a new customer after, “What’s your Name?” is, “What email address would you like us to use?” I think this emphasizes with the customer how important their email is to us and sometimes we follow-up by explaining it’s how we handle all of our communications and documentation. This explanation sometimes leads customers to switch from giving us their “throwaway” email to giving us their primary. For returning customers, we always verify that we have their current email address.The customer’s email address is associated with the customer in our billing system which is Zoho Invoice. About 3-4 times a year, we send emails out to all of our customers. For this, we extract the emails from Zoho Invoice to a spreadsheet, do a little clean-up and then upload them to our mass email provider. Customers are of course able to opt-out of those mailings in which case they only receive emails resulting from billing events.” ~ Steve Hamrin, owner of Hartland Computer Repair and Campus Computer Repair.14. Employ social “chat”platforms to instill a sense of urgency“Try ‘Snapchat’ and other temporary platforms, because by making sure the language of your ‘pitch’ is selective, you will see a rise in the number of responses as it cultivates a special community of users. From a psychological standpoint, if the offer is time sensitive, users are more likely to enter. Especially in the age of Snapchat, if you give your customers, and potential customers, a chance to follow you for a limited time on Snapchat (or a chance to take hold of the account for a day), you will also see a rise in the interest of your campaign. Finally, companies can go a step further and keep the prize or giveaway items secret. This will stir up speculations on social media and will cause more users to share your campaign. Just make sure not to disappoint with the prize or you might see some backlash.” ~ Sam Wheeler of Inseev Interactive.15. Use motion to catch website visitors’ attention“I’ve tried popups, but my current favorite is a scrolling box that creeps up when a user scrolls down the page, about a third of the way. I’ve used this Dreamgrow Scroll Triggered Box plugin and Sumome’s Scroll Box. Your copy should have a unique proposition to decrease users from bouncing instantly. Adding scarcity is also useful for increasing leads. Limited spots available, or a countdown to the end of the deal for signing up will help with impulsive email submits. Once you are getting some emails in your new form, split test everything you can. Colors, headlines,the submit button itself should be getting A/B tested. Optimizely is a great tool for getting started with this.” ~ Mike Terry, digital marketing manager at 80 Proof Digital.16. Offer a content upgrade“Craft a very actionable blog post that’s specific to your audience and worth sharing. A list of tips is always appealing. Then place a line of copy at the beginning and end of the post that offers to send them the list of tips in printable, pdf form if they enter an email address. It’s great because it allows them to take action on the information more easily. To make the signup very simple and tempting for the visitor, we include a link in the copy and have a popup with the email signup appear when they click. There are a bunch of options to achieve the “click to popup” but we’re currently using the PopupAlly Pro WordPress plugin.” ~ Nicole Heymer, owner of Curio Electro, an online marketing firm that works with design firms and other visual brands.17. Make your users smarter“We use education as a carrot to attract new subscribers to our e-newsletter. We do speaking engagements in the community and via webinars and inevitably audience members ask about the costs of our services. I like to use that opportunity as a reminder that we issue a branded e-newsletter called iMpact and that it is a great resource for free tips on how to do marketing. In addition, when visitors land on our website, we have a layover [popup] feature that encourages them to subscribe to iMpact. We learned after about a year of publishing iMpact that our audience clicks the most on the links for our articles (typically “how-to” and “tip” style posts). As a result, we have increased the number of articles we feature in iMpact to give our audience what they engage with most. In the 12 months since we began iMpact, our email list has grown to almost 2,000.” ~ Randy Mitchelson, VP of sales and marketing at iPartnerMedia.

If you want to Learn Which Font Style Is The Smallest In Microsoft Word, Go To This Page. It contains all Microsoft Word Information.What style of font is style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word smallest in Microsoft Word?I often have very limited space when creating reports and dashboards for users. I usually use Arial, or Arial Narrow, but UI isn't my area of expertise, so I want to know, how do you determine an optimal font for fitting style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word most readable text in style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word smallest space?Here is an example: Keep in mind this is just an example, as there are many times that space is limited, such as when you need to squeeze a million columns into a report, etc.Can you give some details about why you are constrained? Is this on style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word desktop, web, mobile, print, or hardware? Why are scrolling and multiple pages not options? Is all of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word information to be displayed really vital, or is some of it secondary? – Steve S Feb 2 '11 at 23:26This is on a chart in a windows application, style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word x-axis labels have very little room. – richard Feb 2 '11 at 23:341Ok, edited style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word question with a representative screenshot. I do want a general answer as well though, that I could use for any situation where space is at a premium. – richard Feb 3 '11 at 0:111So what do you do when you have so many columns that they won't fit even with style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word smallest readable font? Changing style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word font size is almost never a real solution. It can be fine for one-offs, but you really need to look for other options most of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word time. – Steve S Feb 3 '11 at 15:081@Steve - I totally agree. I've added some suggestions along these lines in my answer too. In this I would probably recommend a vertical layout where style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word bars are laied out extending to style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word right side and with style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word labels on style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word left. – jpierson Feb 4 '11 at 3:26It really depends on a lot of factors such as what is style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word frequency of certain characters that you expect and what fonts are available to you.I did a rudimentary by creating a program that iterated through all of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word available fonts I had installed on my Windows box at style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word time and printed a line containing each printable ascii character on to style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word screen in each of these font's. I repeated style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word test as well with different font sizes.The results as I recall them were that Segoe UI and Tahoma were style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word best with respect to space utilization and readability for UI purposes at 10pt and 9pt sizes. In style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word short term we settled on Tahoma since Segoe UI isn't freely available for operating systems below Windows Vista. If you don't need to support Windows XP or older an Windows OS or other a non Windows OS then I would definitely go with Segoe UI otherwise I would go with Tahoma if it's available and if all else fails try Verdana. See this list for a lineup of available Windows fonts as well as information about style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word best of use of each.Keep in mind as well that starting with Windows Vista I believe, Microsoft now recommends using a 9pt font instead of a 10pt font for UI elements since style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word Sego UI font displays much clearer than other fonts at low resolutions especially on flat panel displays.Depending on what platform you are developing for, you may also want to look at modifying font metrics if possible. In .NET with WPF I recall there being quite a bit of ways to modify how style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word text is rendered to allow for condensing style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word space between characters and to make style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word individual characters more narrow. Using this type of technique you can stick with whatever font you like and just tweak it's rendering to get style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word results you need.With regard to your specific example graph that you provided: for this particular graph I would recommend pivoting it so style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word text most likely to be read is horizontal for more natural reading. I would also place style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word number so that it is inside style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word each bar of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word bar graph when it will fit with a color that stands out against whatever background color is there thus increasing style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word space for other things such as style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word labels. Laying out style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word bar graph as rows would make it easier to read and also to print on multiple pages if necessary. If a row layout is not possible then creating a separate key for each item in style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word graph would probably be reasonable and that way each bar could be place closer together as well to save space. The key would allow each bar to be labeled such as A, B, C... or 01, 02, 03... for example and style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word key (layed out in rows somewhere else) would give more detailed information about each.Remember, a chart or diagram is mainly useful for getting quick visual information. If it becomes too much of a burden to style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word user/reader your probably best off simplifying it, consolidating some of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word details of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word chart, or just provide more raw data in a more tabular form.Here is a simple listing showing Arial, Segoe UI, and Tahoma fonts at various sizes. Notice that style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word relative space taken up by each font is different at different point sizes.Update: I've added another comparison below which shows a more complete listing of common characters including capital and lower case letters in each of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word previously mentioned fonts with style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word addition of Verdana and MS Sans Serif (default UI font in Windows prior to Windows 2000). Unfortunately and in response to bobsoap's recommendation for using Verdana, it is pretty clear that Verdana is about style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word worst compared to style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word other fonts at 9pt although keep in mind that this may not hold true for other point sizes. Also size isn't necessarily always style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word most important detail, sometimes it's more important that a font is readable at small sizes than whether it is more compact relative to another font.Generally, there's an "other way". The answers to this question are all great, but honestly, you should look at all style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word different option. Squeezing as much text in as little space as possible always means you've botched a previous design choice.Perhaps you should have flipped them to be horizontal bars, giving you WAY more space to work with.Perhaps you shouldn't have gone with a bar chart, or shouldn't have gone with charts in style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word first place.Perhaps style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word problem is style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word actual data, and you might've had to split it up even further!A side-bar or legend/index could helpHovers might work for style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word online versionThere are so many options, make sure you use style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word right one. Squeezing as much information into a single small area as possible is always style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word wrong way to go. Information needs space to breathe, to be readable, to be scannable and recognizable.Yes, this generally means using way more space. But that's not a bad thing. It will take less effort for style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word person who consumes style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word data to quickly scan a couple of pages filled with well-structured information, than to figure out what that one bar means on that one-page-report. Think of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word old board member, pocketing his reading glasses while passing style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word paper to style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word person next to him: "I can't read this - what does it say?"Apologies for style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word harshness and slight tongue-in-cheek title, but I see that top answer and just feel that style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word "needs a different approach" part needed more elaboration..edit:Since this is a very contested answer, and fairly conflicted with style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word original question, I feel I should elaborate on style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word reasoning behind posting it.First off: this isn't a UX question, it's graphic design or typography question.There are assumptions in this question, style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word biggest one being that style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word "correct solution" to this UX issue is small text. But it's not. Small text becomes unreadable, an issue aggravated by tablets and other mobile devices. What if your user has bad eyesight? What if it's shown on an older, lower resolution monitor? What if there's glare from style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word sun or a light? So many reasons why small text can be unreadable.As such, this answer is here to help style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word next person that has this issue to be mindful of not making style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word same mistake.... having said that - I totally appreciate that style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word person asking style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word question simply doesn't have resources for anything but a font-change :) We've all been there, and we'll all be there again!As is style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word importance of having different fonts, it’s equally important to have different font sizes for different elements. If headers, footers, headings, body text, everything appear to be equally sized, imagine how dull style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word document will look like. It’s advisable to have headings and titles to have bit larger font size than style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word regular text. Similarly style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word text such as footnotes, headers/footers are better with smaller fonts.Smallest and Largest font size in word - Font Size tool opened in Word 2007 screenMicrosoft Word is really good at creating and formatting documents. It is much flexible and easy to change style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word fonts as well as font size. You can access style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word Fonts dialog box or use style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word tools in Home ribbon in Word 2007.Word supports font size between 1 and 1638 if you access it through Fonts dialog box. So style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word largest font size in Word 2007 is 1638 points, but all these numbers are not available in Font Size tool in style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word ribbon.Go to style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word Home tab in Word 2007 ribbon. In Font group, you’ll find style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word font size tool. Open it to find style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word smallest and largest font size in Word 2007, available in font tool box.The list contains font size in points 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 36, 48 and 72.Simply click any of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word required number to specify style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word desired font size among these numbers.However, if you need, you can have text with font sizes not listed in this tool by using Font dialog box. It lets you to set style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word font size smaller 8 as well as larger than 72 points.The font size is decisive for both legibility and text impact. But what exactly is style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word font size? Where is it measured and why are style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word letters of a Times typeface bigger than those of an English cursive font even though you have entered style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word same point value?The web abounds with font size guidelines for students and other target audiences. For example, some universities still prescribe which typeface (Times New Roman) and point size (12 pt) to use for a dissertation which does not necessarily contribute to style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word legibility of a thesis. Many people are unsure when it comes to font sizes. And this is quite understandable given style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word lack of concise and understandable guidelines on this subject. High time to shed light on style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word matter.Typographic unitsWhen working with font, we don’t use style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word metric measurement system but typographic units. So when talking about font size, it’s not metres and millimetres we use but style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word smallest typographic unit, style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word point, established in style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word early days of printing which has survived to date. Different units of measurement were around over style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word years and centuries: The Didot point, a modified version based on style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word Fournier point, was style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word standard in style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word world of typography for a long time. At 0.375 mm, it was slightly bigger than today’s PostScript or DTP point which measures 0.353 mm . So if you enter a 10 pt font size in Microsoft Word or Adobe InDesign, you define that your font will have a size of 3.53 mm. In theory at least.What is font size?Let’s first define style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word term ‘font size’. Strictly speaking, style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word term is misleading since we don’t define style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word size of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word font when setting style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word point value in InDesign, Word or other applications, but rather we specify style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word body height. In manual typesetting, style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word body height is defined by style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word height of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word lead type or metal sort on which style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word actual font face, style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word printing surface of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word type, is moulded. It is surrounded by blank or empty portions of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word letterform, style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word so-called counters.When Gutenberg set a 12 pt font, it was style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word metal type and not style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word printed letter that had a vertical height of 12 points. Hence, style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word body height is generally bigger than style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word printed glyph.Fortunately, in our modern times we don’t have to carry around type cases anymore. In style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word age of digital type, we no longer work with lead type. But style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word body height is still an important reference measure in font design. After all, when you enter a 12 pt font size in InDesign, you define style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word height of a glyph’s bounding box which corresponds to style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word height of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word metal body style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word type was cast on in style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word early days.Different measuring resultsNow one could assume that you would merely have to take away 15 percent of counter space, i.e. style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word blank or empty portions of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word letterform, for each font. So when entering 12 pt minus 15 percent, each font would then have an actually measurable height of 10.2 pt. But this is not style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word case as you have probably noticed: Two different fonts set in style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word same point size can appear similar in size or look surprisingly different. Apart from style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word optical size, which is also important, style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word usage of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word body height is decisive for style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word actually measurable final size.Typeface designers are free to decide how to use style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word body height to create a balance between printed glyph and non-printing space around it. Typographers that prefer a more open, airy feel may cut away a lot of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word letter body, whereas other fonts make full use of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word available design space by reaching style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word boundaries of a glyph’s bounding box and beyond.Depending on how style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word available space is used, style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word actually measurable font will be bigger or smaller.Different optical appearanceWhen considering sizes, we have to remember style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word effect a font has. There are fonts which are identical both in terms of body height (fonts set in 12 pt) and actually measurable letter size (same point size of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word capital letters measured with style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word typometer). Nevertheless, they appear different in size and their legibility varies, especially in small point sizes. Why is that?A letter has different anatomical features. The “p”, for example, extends below style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word baseline, style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word “a” stays in style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word middle, style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word “b” rises above style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word meanline, style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word “E” is located in style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word middle and at style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word top, style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word “O” ascends still a bit further and accented capitals win style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word height competition. This is illustrated in style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word graphic below:Besides shapes, line width and letter width, it is mainly style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word x-height that is decisive for style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word optical size. The x-height is style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word height of lowercase letters in a typeface, such as “m”, “a” or “z”. This height is different in relation to style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word cap height, that is of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word letters “M”, “A”, or “Z”. Often style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word letters have a size ratio according to style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word Golden Ratio at a factor of 1.6 which means that style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word “M” is 1.6 times larger than style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word “m”.But as always these proportions are only an average. Many fonts use other proportions and these work just as well. And although you have to be careful when making generalised statements about font size, it can be said that fonts with large x-heights compared to style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word cap height tend to appear larger than fonts where style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word x-height is relatively small.Measuring font sizeSo what to do if you have a template and need to find out which font sizes are used, for example, to lay out a new flyer based on an old template?There are different approaches to accomplish this, but unfortunately no generally applicable standards. Using a typometer, which is a ruler divided in typographic points, we can measure printed fonts. But there are different ways to measure, different typometers and ultimately different point sizes here as well.Hp heightThe hp height is a standard measurement; it measures style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word height from style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word upper edge of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word letter “h”, “b”, “d” or “l” to style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word lower edge of “p” or “q”. For this purpose, most typometers feature printed rectangles. All you have to do is find style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word rectangle which exactly fits style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word letters “h” and “p” and you know style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word font size. If only there wasn’t style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word matter of different body height usage described above…The cap heightAlternatively, some designers work with style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word cap height which measures just style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word height of a capital letter without bowls, for example that of an “H” or “M”. But they, too, are difficult to measure, especially in case of cursive and handwritten fonts. Of course, style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word cap height is not style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word same as style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word point size you enter in InDesign and other applications. Here you have to specify style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word body height. So you can either draw from experience or you know where to look to calculate style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word font size or body height from style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word cap height.Which font size for which purpose?Given style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word situation explained above, it is hardly possible to give reliable font size recommendations. An easily legible font size for longer body text as used in magazines and books usually ranges between 8 and 12 points. To narrow down further, you have to know which font is used to make a reliable statement. The same applies to business cards or letterheads for which a font size between 8 and 12 pt is equally well suited. Captions, copyright information, footnotes and similar annotations may still be legible in 7 pt. But this strongly depends on style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word font used and on other details, such as style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word line length, style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word amount of text or style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word background. 6 pt fonts usually require style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word reader to wear good spectacles or are used for style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word fine print in contracts which nobody wants to read anyway.Conclusion: We know that we know nothing.There is no universally valid basis for body height usage and/or style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word font size this ultimately delivers. Font sizes are relative and a trained eye and experience are style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word most helpful tools to select style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word right size in addition to some basic values.What Font Should I Use?The Modern Language Association (MLA) provides explicit, specific recommendations for style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word margins and spacing of academic papers. (See: Document Format.) But their advice on font selection is less precise: “Always choose an easily readable typeface (e.g. Times New Roman) in which style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word regular style contrasts clearly with style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word italic, and set it to a standard size (e.g. 12 point)” (MLA Handbook, 7th ed., §4.2).So which fonts are “easily readable” and have “clearly” contrasting italics? And what exactly is a “standard” size?For academic papers, an “easily readable typeface” means a serif font, and a “standard” type size is between 10 and 12 point.Use A Serif FontSerifs are style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word tiny strokes at style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word end of a letter’s main strokes. Serif fonts have these extra strokes; sans serif fonts do not. (Sans is French for “without.”) Serif fonts also vary style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word thickness of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word letter strokes more than sans serifs, which have more uniform lines.Books, newspapers, and magazines typically set their main text in a serif font because they make paragraphs and long stretches of text easier to read. Sans serifs (Arial, Calibri, Helvetica, Gill Sans, Verdana, and so on) work well for single lines of text, like headings or titles, but they rarely make a good choice for body text.Moreover, most sans serifs don’t have a true italic style. Their “italics” are really just “obliques,” where style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word letters slant slightly to style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word right but keep style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word same shape and spacing. Most serifs, on style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word other hand, do have a true italic style, with distinctive letter forms and more compact spacing.Since they’re more readable for long passages and have sharper contrast in their italics, you should always use a serif font for style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word text of an academic paper.Use A Readable Type SizeThe standard unit for measuring type size is style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word point. A point is 1/72 of an inch, roughly one pixel on a computer screen. The point size of a font tells you style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word size of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word “em square” in which your computer displays each letter of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word typeface. How tall or wide any given letter is depends on how style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word type designer drew it within style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word em square, thus a font’s height and width can vary greatly depending on style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word design of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word typeface. That’s why if you set two fonts at style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word same point size, one usually looks bigger than style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word other.Compare style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word following paragraphs, both set at 12 point but in different fonts:For body text in academic papers, type sizes below 10 point are usually too small to read easily, while type sizes above 12 point tend to look oversized and bulky. So keep style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word text of your paper between 10 and 12 point.Some teachers may require you to set your whole text at 12 point. Yet virtually every book, magazine, or newspaper ever printed for visually unimpaired grown-ups sets its body type smaller than 12 point. Newspapers use even smaller type sizes. The New York Times, for example, sets its body text in a perfectly legible 8.7 point font. So with proper spacing and margins, type sizes of 11 or 10 point can be quite comfortable to read.Font RecommendationsI usually ask my students to use Century Schoolbook or Palatino for their papers. If your teacher requires you to submit your papers in a particular font, do so. (Unless they require you to use Arial, in which case drop style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word class.)One thing to consider when choosing a font is how you submit your essay. When you submit a hard copy or a PDF, your reader will see style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word text in whatever typeface you use. Most electronic submission formats, on style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word other hand, can only use style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word fonts available on style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word reader’s computer. So if you submit style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word paper electronically, be sure to use a font your instructor has.What follows is a list of some widely available, highly legible serif fonts well-suited for academic papers. I’ve divided them into four categories: Microsoft Word Fonts, Mac OS Fonts, Google Fonts, and Universal Fonts.Microsoft Word FontsMicrosoft Word comes with lots of fonts of varying quality. If your teacher asks you to submit your paper in Word format, you can safely assume they have Word and all style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word fonts that go with it.Morris Fuller Benton designed Century Schoolbook in 1923 for elementary-school textbooks, so it’s a highly readable font. It’s one of style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word best fonts available with Microsoft Word. Because it’s so legible, U. S. Supreme Court Rule 33.1.b madates that all legal documents submitted to style of font is the smallest in Microsoft Word Court be set in Century Schoolbook or a similar Century-style font.Hermann Zapf designed Palatino in 1948 for titles and headings, but its elegant proportions make it a good font for body text.
