A.I'm not a fan of mixing fonts in an Excel workbook because it requires extra work to apply different fonts and because your documents tend to look more professional when you consistently use the same font throughout your cover letters, financial reports, and footnotes. However, when it comes to choosing the best font for displaying both text and numbers, the font you choose matters. From a readability point of view, the Times New Roman font is considered to be easier and faster to read compared with other commonly used fonts. Times New Roman is a serif typeface that first appeared in the British newspaper The Times on Oct. 3, 1932. The Times New Roman font's serif design makes reading easier because the characters are more recognizable. Notice how easy it is to read the following phrase in Times New Roman font even though the bottom half of the characters are hidden from view.
Likewise, the Arial font's thicker and cleaner design seems to make large sets of numbers appear streamlined and more readable. While readability is important, being contemporary is also important.

Today, Calibri is the hot new font that may be the best one to use in Excel, Outlook, and Word for the following reasons:
- Current and hip:Introduced by Microsoft in 2007 in conjunction with Office 2007 and Windows Vista, Calibri is basically a skinnier version of the Arial font and the latest font style to gain wide acceptance.
- Easier to read:The Calibri font was designed by Microsoft to make both numbers and text more readable for all sizes of fonts, large and small. It was specifically engineered to be highly legible for both alphabet and numerical characters, and the thinner Calibri font makes it easier to read on today's smaller handheld devices.
