The 44 Safe Fonts for PowerPoint
At the recent Presentation Summit, my good friend Johanna Rehnvall presented an absolutely killer reference tool for choosing fonts in PowerPoint. We all know that there are only certain fonts that you can be certain everyone else opening your file will have. But what are those fonts?...where can you find a list?...What do those fonts look like?...
Johanna had all these questions time and again, so she created "The Periodic Table of PowerPoint Fonts," an interactive guide to the 44 standard fonts found on most PCs.
Divided by Serif, Sans Serif and Script typefaces, it a highly visual font picker and reference that everyone should keep on their desktops.

And special thanks, of course, to Echo Swinford and Julie Terberg and their book, Building PowerPoint Templates, for providing the raw material (and standing ovation) to Johanna.
