If anyone wants to talk about fonts, please use this thread as it has a lot of very useful information.

When publishers embed fonts, they usually use "Charis SIL". Charis does have one problem. When you use the default line-height it is too close. So the publisher uses a line-height of 1.2em. I find a line-height of 1.1em to be better. But some may like the default line spacing.
