![]() I somehow assumed the fonts that are default in MS Word are free to use for commercial purposes (and Georgia and Gararmond, not to mention TNR, are default, aren't they). So knowing little about fonts to begin with, I became more confused. About what fonts are free and good for body text, its response was: Libre Baskerville, Crimson Text, and some others. The same for Georgia, Garamond and Baskerville. I asked ChatGPT about whether Times New Roman is a free font and it says No, I need to have license to use it for commercial purposes. But then, it seems, strictly speaking, there aren't that many free fonts. If the font is indeed Minion and I should have license to use it for commercial purposes, I would consider going about it soon. ![]() So the Minion Pro (it's not one of the default fonts, I assume) I downloaded must be a demo, or pirated version, not the official, licensed version. And the search I've done let me know that Minion is not a free font. ![]() I added a number of fonts to the default fonts of Publisher but I did not add any font that requires license for commercial use. I opened my Publisher to see whether it has Minion. Is it Minion? (I tried to find out what font it is and was told that it is Minion). And the font used in the image below can be that font, it seems to me. I think it would be great to have one, single, font that would always be the first choice to consider for body text. But now that I'll be formatting for an actual book, I would like to know what font to settle on. I did all the practicing with a manuscript in Times New Roman. Having done quite a bit of practicing, I am ready to do actual formatting for a paperback.
