Here are some examples using the old-fashioned html tags:

If there is no tag, the text will take on the default font style, size and color determined by the browser.

Font families

ariel or helvetica or another sans-serif

verdana is another sans-serif

times the serif font

georgia, a "fancy" serif type

courier

Type size: This line of text has the default size with one exception.

Type color: You can set a part a different. It's determined right here in this line of type.

Or you can set the whole paragraph a different color.

You can mix it all up, too!

and you can make text bold, or italic or even strike-through
