which fonts are acceptable on a professional resume?

[ireallyamaprincess]

I am stuck on which fonts are ok to use on my resume. some say yeah, others
ney, so I would appreciate some professional feedback. Also, How do you
address a cover letter (company name, receiver name and address) when all
they leave is an email address in the classified ads? is it ok to email them
and ask for this information? How to I word it so that my presentation isn't
off? Thank you!! ireallyamaprincess

Clarity is the key to any professional document.. use Times New Roman or
something very close.. resumes with colours, silly fonts, obtuse decoration
are put to one side.. the side with the trash can..
