Though Colby's official typefaces are Janson and Franklin Gothic, most users will not have these fonts on their computers, so do not use Janson or Franklin Gothic as a Web font face.

Except in official Colby publication such as the course catalogue or handbooks, use of the official fonts in graphics on the Web is optional since the header bar contains the College logotype. In cases where official typefaces are used, they should be used in major graphics.

If you use the "convert to HTML" option in Microsoft Word, do not carry over the font formatting (such as font faces). Users' computers will not have the same fonts. Keep the font faces simple (Helvetica and Arial for sans serif, Times and Palatino for serif).

Sans: Arial, Helvetica or any user's font that is sans-serif

Serif: Palatino, Times, or any user's font that is serif

In this stylesheet:
The stylesheet sets the default font for text as a serif (like Times or Palatino) face at 12 pixels/points.

If you want to format other parts of your text as larger serif or sans serif faces, you do not need to use the <font face. . .> tags. Just insert into a formatting tag such as the <p>, <b>, <i>, or <div> tags the word "class=" with one of these classes in quotes:

Class	Makes font this style
serif8 serif9 serif10 serif12 serif14 serif16 serif18 serif20 serif22 serif24 serif26 serif28 serif36 serif48 serif72	Makes serif font at the pixel size of the number
sans8 sans9 sans10 sans11 sans12 sans14 sans16 sans18 sans20 sans22 sans24 sans26 sans28 sans36 sans48 sans72	Makes sans font at the pixel size of the number
mono9	Makes a mono-spaced font (one where all characters, including spaces, are equally spaced, 9 pixels

For example:	Will look like:
<font class="sans10" color="#990000">Hello, World</font>	Hello, World
<b class="sans12"><font color="#CC3300">Hello, World</font></b>	Hello, World

Remember, these classes will only work in text formatting tags. They will not work in table tags.

NOTE: If you use the "convert to HTML" option in Word, do not use Word's font formatting (such as font faces). Users' computers will not have the same fonts as you. Keep the font faces simple (Helvetica and Arial for sans serif, and Times and Palatino for serif).

The stylesheet will not underline your links as seen on other sites. In Explorer only, links will be underlined when the user rolls over the link.
