User blog comment:Sarah Manley/New Editor Scheduled for Sitewide Release/@comment-785068-20110908165255

The inconsistency with the font seen on an article and the font seen within the new editor's editing screen seriously hurts my eyes to read. If there is one thing that could have been kept consistent between them for the sake of consistency, why couldn't it have been the font? I think even the-bane-to-web-and-graphic-designers-everywhere Times Roman would have looked nicer and more legible than the tiny, bold faced-looking font in the new editor. I regularly use Source Mode to edit and I literally have to squint to read what I just typed. This is the only time that I am not, since the fonts are the same.

Are there any future plans to fix/alter these fonts, either for articles or the new editor? Perhaps implementing a bigger font size for the editor would help or something.
