We always recommend the use of the simpler styled fonts such as Arial, the characters have a constant thickness. Fonts such as Times Roman, with thin vertical strokes, can be difficult to read at a distance. Instead of using the underline feature to emphasis titles, it is better to use colour or a bold style of font. From a distance an underlined F will look like an E and an I can become a L.
