...my question is fairly simple, and (mostly) rhetorical, but opinion is sought after.

I want to use DejaVu Sans as a replacement for the default AGS font (aka 0: Normal). I'm just wondering what a decent point size for this font would be. I'm reckoning 8 point, myself (non-aliased, non-outline). Anyone agree?

Just try importing it and see how it looks. Sometimes AGS renders fonts badly at certain sizes but fine at 1pt more or less. Once you figured it out, if you still want our opinions, just post some screenshots of what you chose in the critics lounge.

Edit: As for size, I normally use 11pt fonts for normal display text (in a hi-res game), but never tried DejaVu Sans.
