(a) Generally. Plain language contracts must be printed in an easily readable font and type size pursuant to Texas Finance Code, § 341.502(a). If other state or federal law requires a different type size for a specific disclosure or contractual provision, the type size specified by the other law should be used.(b) Typeface readability. The text of the document must be set in an easily readable typeface. Typefaces considered to be readable include Arial, Calibri, Georgia, Helvetica, Times New Roman, and Verdana.(c) Titles and headings. Titles, headings, subheadings, numbering, captions, and illustrative or explanatory tables or sidebars may be used to distinguish between different levels of information or to provide emphasis.(d) Typeface size. Typeface size is referred to in points. Because different typefaces in the same point size are not of equal size, typeface is not strictly defined but is expressed as a minimum size in the Times New Roman typeface for visual comparative purposes. Use of a larger typeface is encouraged. The typeface for the federal disclosure box or other disclosures required under federal law must be legible, but no minimum typeface is required. Generally, the typeface for the remainder of the contract must be at least as large as 8 point in the Times New Roman typeface. A point is generally viewed as 1/72nd of an inch.7 Tex. Admin.
