What should your minimum font size be?
While there is no official minimum font size for the web, it is generally agreed upon that 16px for body text is a good starting point. Of course, some text will be smaller and headings will often times be larger. But, the main body text (like what you're reading right now) should usually be 16px or larger.
What is the rule for font size?
Size. In general, the rule of thumb is that font size needs to be 16 pixels for mobile websites. Anything smaller than that could compromise readability for visually impaired readers. Anything too much larger could also make reading more difficult.
Is 10 too small of a font?
No, 10 pts is not necessarily too small. However, don't go any smaller because it will affect readability. Generally, a good font size for a resume is 10–12 pts. While 10 is on the low side, it's acceptable.
How many font sizes should you use?
Keep The Number of Fonts Used At a Minimum
Using more than 3 different fonts makes a website look unstructured and unprofessional. Keep in mind that too many type sizes and styles at once can also wreck any layout.
