Yeah, I searched through all the Google Fonts to try to find a good serif
font but they all seemed either too light or too heavy, so ended up just
using Garamond and URW Palladio L - the Garamond was a bit light but I kind
of got used to it.
There is a free alternative called ET Book though, which looks better - it
would require hosting on the EmacsWiki server or a CDN. I'll push it up to
GitHub if anyone would like to try it -
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs?action=browse;bootstrap=0;id=CSSPreview;css=https://rawgit.com/bburns/emacswiki-light-theme/master/light.css
- reset with http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs?action=browse;id=CSS;bootstrap=1.
I'll try some sans-serif fonts out and see how they look also.
Brian
