Verdana Font

Glimpse uses the Microsoft Verdana font by default for almost all text. It's an excellent font designed to be readable at very small sizes on limited resolution devices like computer monitors.

Verdana cannot be packaged with Glimpse because of its licencing restrictions. However, your system probably already has the Verdana font. If not, it's freely available:

Windows
