Chances are, we're not all seeing the same thing.
This font is specified in your browser's preferences.
Default Font Bold +2
This is Verdana at its default
size.
It is the most legible text font for computer monitors at present.
Think about using it for long text passages.
Verdana Bold+2
This is Arial at its default size.
It is not as legible as Verdana because the letters are spaced too tightly.
Arial is better suited for headings.
Arial Bold +2
This is Helvetica at its default size.
Normally one of the most legible sans-serif fonts in the world,
Helvetica is far too tightly spaced for computer screens (at small sizes).
Helvetica Bold +2
This is Trebuchet MS at its default
size.
It has a casual feel and is fairly legible.
One drawback is its small x-height (the size of its lower case letters).
Trebuchet MS Bold + 2
This is Times New Roman at its default
size.
Normally the first choice for text in print media,
Times reads poorly on a computer monitor.
Times Bold +2
This is Georgia at its default
size.
It was designed as a web-based alternative to Times.
If you want to use a serif font for text, consider Georgia.
Georgia Bold +2
This is Courier New at its default size.
Courier is a mono-space font.
Use it sparingly for best results.
Courier New Bold +2
Remember
These are the seven fonts
you can expect most users to have:
Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet MS,
Times New Roman, Georgia, and Courier New.
For the rest, you must create graphic files.
