This example demonstrates a clean, legible typographic foundation for web-based data visualizations, using a stacked font-family declaration that falls back from Helvetica Neue to Helvetica, Arial, and Lucida Grande before settling on a generic sans-serif. The CSS rule, applied to the `body` element, prioritizes system fonts for consistent rendering across platforms without requiring external font files. The code defines the font stack in a stylesheet, ensuring that any chart or graph inherits the same typeface, and it highlights how a single CSS declaration can establish a default aesthetic for an entire visualization project.
