10 point Comic Sans MS.  I see you're point though.  I thought that 
Acrobat files had fixed fonts inbedded in the file?  I haven't sued 
Acrobat to cerate stuff in awhile.  If I decide to do a free manual, it'll 
most likely be HTML for greater compatability.

Another drawback to PDFs (as opposed to HTML) is that the end user can't
easily modify it for use on her machine.  F'rinstance:  From this end, 
your
messages always look like you choose six point type, and that would be a
pain in online documentation. (I suspect you choose a font which I don't
have.) With HTML, that would be an easy fix.  With Acrobat, an unfortunate
font mapping would be harder to modify.
