Why you need a font resource

You can do without special fonts

You can write your book without ever using any fonts other that what comes naturally (the default) in Writeandshow. The standard is Arial (if you want to change to a different font as your "default" then just ask your WriteandShow support tech person.

Use the Font button - your author panel has a special button that makes it easy for you to format any amount of text on a page into various fonts and colors and sizes.
