Gotta question for you all.
I am reading over a new book right for a review and I noticed it uses the Souvenir font.
You all know this font. It was used in the Moldvay version of Basic, in Labyrinth Lord, Basic Fantasy and both of my witch books.

Personally I like the font, but I have had some emails that it is hard to read when printed out.
I am always thinking about new books to work one and even free ones to send out I was curious about your thoughts.
The thing I have always been told is Serif fonts are easier to read, but no one has shown any real (measurable) difference. Souvenir seems like a nice comprise of a lightly-serifed font.
Let me know what you all think.
