Print out an instruction in 4 pt and in 6 pt in the various languages that
the instruction will be printed. Pick the one that works best in all of the
languages.

Subject: Font Size

Hi All:

I am getting ready to write a one page Safety Instructions list that will be
translated into 17 different languages. The final size of the sheet is going
to be 5.5 x 4.25 or 2.75x4.25.

Is it ok to use 4 or 6 point font? What is the standard font size for safety
instructions?

Thanks,
Megan
