If I use Courier to write an MLA term paper (I've been told it is only acceptable to use Times New Roman or Courier) do I have to use 10 size font instead of 12?
Because it looks bigger to me.

Because it is. Times New Roman was designed specifically to fit more text into less space. So it's smaller.
Interesting note: italics were invented for the same reason.

Okay. So I have to use 10 sized font then right?

Courier 10pt looks ok to me on paper. 12pt, I agree is way huge. I dunno... whatever looks most like a typewriter is prolly what they're expecting.

Fuck it. I'm using Times.
I think this thread was just an excuse for me to procrastinate anyway.
