Suitable Font for A4 side folded 4 page 'booklet'

Art

I am preparing a Catholic Mass booklet on an A4 side folded page to give me
4
pages.
I have used Verdana font 8 points and it looks satisfactory.
Page 1 contains the title, a photo etc. The other 3 pages are full.

I am looking for advice as to whether or not there is another font and
point
size that might be more suitable.

I'm using Publisher 2002.

I posted this earlier in the wrong place. Sorry

Thanks

I suspect the font is a matter of taste. I was sent a Catholic service booklet
for Lent, it was all done in Arial 10 pt. Eight points seems small, hopefully
your parishioners are young with excellent eye sight and your church is well
lighted.

Mary,
Thanks for your advice.
I decided to use Verdana 8 point Bold.

Anything bigger would have needed more pages.

Thanks

Generally speaking serif family fonts are easier to read (Verdana is sans
serif) for body content.

Rob,

Thanks for your suggestion.

Could I be so bold as to ask you to name two or three serif fonts that are
available in Publisher that I might consider

Georgia, Courier, Times New Roman, Bookman are just a few.
