Palatino Linotype Bold for chats (like MSN, etc.)

I just checked out Palatino Linotype on MSN, and it looks nice. I think I'm a convert

I use Arial if I can be bothered to change it, it looks real nice when it is anti-aliased (a la clear type) It looks real nice.

uhhh, avec serif is like necessary for printed stuff. Sure, we all love arial and stuff for reading on our screens, but it's a pain for hard copies.

Fixedsys FTW!

[LiquidImpulse]

arial & times new roman ftw!




and on special occassions, Comic Sans

 

[Baked]

Arial 4 Life.

Calibri looks like a cross between Comic and Arial. Not bad.

Is the office 2007 beta worth installing? I got it for free through my school.

I wonder how this will affect her job...

I hate tech people like that. A lot of compute techies are so anal that they'll chance your personal setup to their preferences, without asking... really annoying.

[LtPage1]

Cool. Looks good.

I've been using this font for a couple years. Definitely not a "paper" font but pretty badass imo.

 

[Suspicious-Teach8788]

Calibri is pretty good. I like Office 2007.

I usually use TNR with the other versions of office since its default, but I switch to Garamond occasionally when I need to cram my paper into a smaller space.

The writer of that article cares way too much about fonts. It's just a font.

And he's a writer. His life is looking at fonts.

I'm a designer and I care about fonts lots. They can make or break a piece.

If you ever use comic sans, I will smack you.
