很佩服國外一些前端開發人員對待學問的研究精神，他們很善於總結發現。看到一篇關於安全字體List of Web Safe Fonts的文章，裡面總結了所有的安全字體的樣式，當然都是英文的。
所謂安全字體，就是在所有的浏覽器中都能正常顯示的字體，也就是所有操作系統默認都安裝了的字體。
共有21種安全字體：
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-family: 'Arial Black', Gadget, sans-serif;
font-family: 'Bookman Old Style', serif;
font-family: 'Comic Sans MS', cursive;
font-family: Courier, monospace;
font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
font-family: Garamond, serif;
font-family: Georgia, serif;
font-family: Impact, Charcoal, sans-serif;
font-family: 'Lucida Console', Monaco, monospace;
font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode', 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;
font-family: 'MS Sans Serif', Geneva, sans-serif;
font-family: 'MS Serif', 'New York', sans-serif;
font-family: 'Palatino Linotype', 'Book Antiqua', Palatino, serif;
font-family: Symbol, sans-serif;
font-family: Tahoma, Geneva, sans-serif;
font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif;
font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;
font-family: Webdings, sans-serif;
font-family: Wingdings, 'Zapf Dingbats', sans-serif;

IE7下截圖：
以前常常在煩惱中英文混排的問題，英文字體一般都是選用亞洲字體或者Verdana字體，可在和中文混排的時候都不是很理想，偶然看到一篇淘寶兄弟的blog，他建議用Tahoma字體，而且發現淘寶網很快的改用了這種字體。從我上面的截圖也可以看出，Tahoma字體在12px下中英文混排是看上去最舒服的。
