screen readers do not even notice that they are there and for best rendering, we turn off font styles in the options of microsoft windows internet explorer. ----- Original Message ----- From: "FOX, Jake" <FOXJ@NORWICH-UNION.CO.UK> To: <w3c-wai-ig@w3.org> Sent: Tuesday, October 07, 2003 7:44 AM Subject: italic fonts Hi guys, Does anyone know where use of italic fonts stands from an accessibility perspective? should they be entirely avoided and bold or bullets be used to pull out information? Users viewing sites with italic fonts may have trouble if they are using assistive technology such as zoom tools and screen resizers? Be interested to see what you guys think. Jake. ********************************************************************** This email and any files sent with it are intended only for the named recipient.
