  How to choose a body text font
Body copy is usually between 8 and 14 points in size and readability is the key to selecting fonts for body copy.
Choose a typeface that is readable at body text font sizes of 14 points or less.
Choose a body text font that blends in and doesn't distract the reader with oddly shaped letters, or extremes in x-height, descenders, or ascenders.

 Body Text Extraction   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Similarly when extracting text from a web page for use in classification, text extracted from the article body is much less likely to mislead the classifier than text extracted from the surrounding clutter.
We found that text from outside the body of an article was less likely to be relevant to the document and therefore more likely to mislead a text classifier.
The central ``plateau'' corresponds to the body of the text highlighted in Fig.

 Macromedia - Director TechNote : Frequently asked questions about text and fields   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Text cast members are editable while working on your movie and, optionally while a movie plays.
The same amount of text in a field cast member would use around 2 or 3 K. Similarly, a text-based Flash component requires an instance of the Flash Asset Xtra and component information to be loaded into memory, hence requiring additional memory.
For larger blocks of text and text in smaller point sizes, fields are usually preferable to rich text.

 How to size text using ems | clagnut/blog   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Text for the screen is sized with CSS in terms of pixels, ems or keywords.
Keyword-based text sizing will allow all browsers to resize text so this is a possibility, but I don’t find it gives me the precision that pixels would give me. Using ems however, allows all browsers to resize text and also provides pixel-level precision and so they tend to be my unit of choice.
This way the text is resizable in all browsers, and the only people who will get a different default font size to what you intended are IE users who have changed the font size in their preferences.

 [No title]
The term "body", when not further qualified, means the body of an entity, that is the body of either a message or of a body part.
A body part that starts with a blank line, therefore, is allowed and is a body part for which all default values are to be assumed.
Body parts that must be considered to end with line breaks, therefore, should have two CRLFs preceding the encapsulation line, the first of which is part of the preceding body part, and the second of which is part of the encapsulation boundary.

 Design With Reason: "Newspaper Body Text"
Readability is the level of comfort a user has with a certain kind of text, and how accustomed their eye has become over time to the print specifications.
While the legibility of any small text on an aging letterpress unit may be poor, it very well may be considered "readable" by the newspaper's readers, simply because the face has become so familiar to them over a period of time.
For example, newspapers adopting a system like CCI often have to decide quite early on what the body text face will be, as much of the laborious coding process is centered around that decision.

 DESIGNING MEN: READING THE MALE BODY AS TEXT   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
What we are able to see, value, and respond to in a text is socially constructed, and the meaning we draw from whatever we encounter is a priori resident within--generated by--ourselves, and shaped by the complex interaction of culture, life experience, and individual need.
The human body, in this view, can be understood only in the context of the social construction of reality; indeed, the body itself is seen as a social construct, a means of social expression or performance by which our identity and value--for ourselves and others--are created, tested, and validated.
Heterosexuality is read onto men's bodies, which is why, in the present debate on the genesis of sexual orientation, gay men can usually chart the development of their sexual self-awareness, while straight men believe they have "always been that way." Heterosexuality is a government-designed and -controlled process of breeding, of animal husbandry.

 Headline vs body text discussion
To this I must respond that the text of a node should be emancipated from the forced assumption that a new sentence= a new node.
Entry of the large body of text should NOT be afflicted with the automatic correlation of one sentence=one node.It should NOT be necessary to move the block of text to the next lower level of the outline in order to hide it behind its "headline".
I think it is more logical to have the headline and body text composed/contained in a single node and exported as such into any other text document or markup language.

 Navigating Spaces: the Human Textual Body (text)
In regards to the print text - human body interaction, French feminists Helene Cixous, Julia Kristeva, and Luce Irigaray seek to achieve a uniquely feminine language that breaks through or exceeds the culturally imposed bounds of patriarchy.
Yet many of the tenets which they associate with a masculine, patriarchal language (hierarchy, fixity, and linearity) are counter-posed not only in their own feminine writings (which strive for fluidity, connectivity, and cyclical non-linearity) but also in much of the writing which occurs in electronic environments - or electronic hypertext.
And Fredric Jameson feels that the ease with which images and text can now be reproduced and recontextualized has resulted in an ahistorical superficiality and flatness, or the postmodern pastiche and fragmentation of self in the electronic era.

As well as handling the basic body functions, the reptilian brain had, loosely speaking, three 'compartments' managing other physical capacities: one in the front for smell, one in the middle for vision and one in the rear for balance and co-ordination.
In addition, the reptilian brain was 'hard-wired' for reflex actions, such as breathing and the heartbeat, and with the basic instincts necessary for survival and the preservation of genes, such as the sexual drive and the 'fight or flight' response to danger.
As well as controlling the essential, involuntary body functions, the primitive brain enables babies to demand what they need to stay alive.

 "Body text" question (excerpt/extended body) « WordPress Support
I kind of like how Nucleus divides the post into main and extended body, where only the main body is visible in the main page, and the extended body on the single post page (with a read more link from the front page for posts with an extended body).
I find this useful for very long texts where you don't want the post to dominate the front page entirely, or you want to add some extra information for those interested only.

In the preferred embodiment, the available body of text comprises only the textual body in plain format from a received E-mail message, while the responsive body of text preferably comprises a dictated E-mail response.
Each word from the selected text of the received E-mail message is compared against the speech recognition system's vocabulary to determine whether any words are out-of-vocabulary.
Similarly, new context information is extracted from the selected text of the received E-mail message, and used to update the system's language model.

 Chapter 1: Backgrounds and Colors
This has the obvious drawback of forcing the browser to download a large graphic and tile it so that large portions of the image are 'off-screen,' but that's the price your users will have to pay.
Using BODY attributes, it is possible to set the color values of ordinary text (using text), the text of hyperlinks (link), the text of already visited links (vlink), and the color which the browser uses to highlight a link when it's selected by the user (alink, which stands for "activated link").
Of course, the same could be done with the background also set to fl, which would make the text fairly hard to read.
