Hi guys, is there anyone here who has used Crimson font for printing (magazines or newsletters or books)?
My layout artist is using Crimson for the interior layout of my book and everything's finalized EXCEPT for the font size. I just can't choose between 11-point and 12-point fonts.
So I would like to ask writers/editors here who have used Crimson before in their works to cast their vote.
If you need figures... Page 4 of the chapter in 11-point font contains 280 words and 255 words in 12-point font. Both samples fall withing the industry guideline (250-300 words per page).

A published readability study indicates that 11/13 edges out pretty much everything else including the various flavors of 12pt.
I am not familiar with Crimson. The readability study indicates that a traditional serif font such as the "humanist" fonts are more readable for text blocks than other fonts are.
