Optimizing Fonts in Google Chrome for Vista

Last night I posted about using the “C*” font “Consolas” for your Command Prompt and PowerShell in Windows Vista.

There are several fonts in this family including a nice Serif and Sans-Serif font as well, so if you’d like to take advantage of those in Google Chrome, simply click the little wrench icon and select “Options”. On the “Minor Tweaks” tab you’ll find a button labeled “Change font and language settings”. Click on that button and set “Constantia” for your Serif, “Calibri” for your Sans-Serif and “Consolas” for your Fixed-width fonts.

You could choose similar settings in any other browser you use as well. I would give you directions and a screenshot for Firefox as well, but hey, I’m not opening Firefox, remember?
