Should be all set - there are some things that can be cleaned up in 
individual themes now, but unless we can update the main Horde css to 
not specify font-size: 75%, then I think we're pruned down now.

And for other apps:



$ grep -h sans-serif */themes/screen.css | sort -u

     font-family: Geneva,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;

     font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;

     font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;

     font-family: Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif;

font-family is currently specified in many places leading to 
inconsistent lists of fonts for similar elements.  It also makes it 
more difficult to override fonts in other themes since many places 
need to be changed.



Eg, horde has these sans-serif font-family listings:



Geneva,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;

Tahoma,Geneva,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;



And these serif font-family listings:



Verdana,Arial,serif;



Though neither Verdana nor Arial are serif fonts.



Can we consolidate on "Geneva,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" for 
sans-serif fonts?  Is Tahoma really needed?



What list of serif fonts should we use?
