This is the guideline I use.
I prefer to leave font type and size to the individual user's preference,
for usability, but I find increasingly that clients want to control this.
Alas, I now have pages with fonts set to be small when seen in MSIE and thus
too small for comfort in Mozilla. I know I could detect the type of browser
being used and offer a different CSS depending, but I'm not allowed this
extra because 'everyone uses MSIE'. Perhaps I'm missing a trick - I am very
new to this aspect of web creation, despite 8 years in the business!
