Times New Roman is widely used in this day and age to convey a sense of media neutrality and integrity. Times New Roman is a font reminiscent of historical speeches, prized lab reports, established newspapers and a conveyor of the traditional values we all cherish.

Helvetica, on the other hand and as you indeed argue, is a font more suited to grandiose ideas appealing to the artist in us. Its very name implies whimsical fantasies demanding only a creative outlet, which has no place within the professional world of print.

Thus, you will see Times New Roman in all areas of importance. Helvetica can get the spotlight, but Times New Roman is and always will be the leading font.

If it wasn't for me taking a calligraphy course at Reed we would have never had beautiful typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts on computers.

VERDANA FOR THE WIN.

You will all notice that AnimeNation uses Verdana as it's default font?

It is the best.

Only Apple slaves have Helvetica. The font costs more than its worth for everyone else (ie. it doesn't come with any other operating system).

I don't have a girlfreind so whoever Helvetica is, I'd say he's one lucky guy :naughty:

There are cooler fonts then these but I can't show you unless I do something like this.
