Print in my items okay to read?
Hi there,
Have just been checking some of my items. 99.9% of my items have been listed through EL and I thought the print in the descriptions is a bit small, can someone please check some to see if they can read them okay.
Cheers and thanks
Wendy

the description's too small for me to read easily.

I found it not so much to small as in size but font is a bit squished I think a different font that is spaced out a bit like > verdana < would make it easier to read.

This font here I'm using is verdana.

cheers

Hi Wendy, your print is not overly small, but would be better with a space between the lines.

I use Comic Sans & block form, size Medium and different colour fonts
to match the item.

And always centre the text.

Thanks to all who have responded. It is the first time I have used EL to bulk uplist everything as I wanted to come back with a vengeance so to speak.
There is no way that you can change the font size and style in the bulk edit thing is there? I had a look and got a blank screen to play with which in my opinion would wipe the description altogether and I would have to do them all again! NOT for 1800 plus items. Thanks again
Cheers

 Small but not too much.  The biggest problem with your listing would be the way it's set out and maybe all those postage prices - a bit like looking up the prices of seed packets lol

Fordfillie, I was sent an email to bump up my thread about fonts, photos & iPhones

Hope it helps

Hi

I think it is a little small but unfortunately there isn't a way to bulk edit that. I use Arial as I think it is a clear font.

I wonder if you might be best selling your items in lots, though. The one I looked at was less to buy that the fvf you'd pay.

All the best.

Will edit items as I can get the time, but thank you all for your comments. Cheers
