Softsub, so the end user can adjust it to suit their needs, then you can do it how you like with little regard for anybody else!

20 is rather small. But all of this depends on the size of the video and such, really. 20 point on 720 video will be tiny, especially when upscaled to a 1080 screen.

Fonts don't matter to me, really. I don't mind Arial myself. Better than some 'scripty' type fonts some people have used in the past. Subs should first and foremost be readable. Then you can get to the aesthetics. Basic white Arial with a black border/shadow works fine in most cases, IMO. I do, however, tend to dislike yellow text. Something of a 'standard' on DVDs (or DVD players?) which is pretty crap. >.<

But anyway. Softsub. It's the only way to be safe!
