Default font size for polytonic Greek
Does anyone else think the default font size for polytonic Greek should be increased? It looks small to me, especially in SBL Greek, which is the font with the highest priority in the CSS. Weylaway (talk) 19:55, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
- It seems OK to me; can you post screen shots showing how it looks for you? BTW I do notice when comparing polytonic Ἀριστοτέλης (Aristotélēs) to non-polytonic Αριστοτέλης (Aristotélis) that the latter seems relatively ugly because it uses a sans-serif font.

- FWIW, this is what it looks like for me (top is the level of zoom I usually use, bottom is 100% zoom). - -sche (discuss) 22:13, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
- Interesting; your polytonic looks sans-serif, while your non-polytonic looks more serif, which is the reverse of what I see. Benwing2 (talk) 22:19, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
- For non-polytonic, it's using Gentium for me, the second font in the list (because I don't have Athena, the first font in the list). For polytonic it was using DejaVu Sans (the third font in the list, because I didn't have SBL Greek or Athena). Now that I've downloaded SBL Greek, it looks like this, displaying polytonic in SBL Greek, which is heavily (IMO distractingly) serifed and slanted and handwritingesque. SBL Greek polytonic text is indeed smaller than other text, though not unreadably so IMO. (But I do think SBL Greek looks worse than other fonts in the list, so I might be tempted to move it down in the ranking... but perhaps it is first because it has the best diacritic support?) - -sche (discuss) 06:56, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
