| | | What's your favourite font? I like Calibri.
Although it is one of the few endering features of the new office package, I can't help but feel my essays look a tad more professional in it.
Perhaps I'm just becoming delusional in my old age. Who can say? This font is hard to read on screen, but apparently easier to read on paper, unless you are dyslexic. This font should be taken out of the back by the chemical bins and shot. | | | | | | |

| I like clean, classic serif fonts.
Excessively decorative lettering irks me.
And I agree with you, templelane, about Comic Sans needing to be shot. |

| Yes, I'd have to say I was cracking up a bit when I posted this! To much work and no play make templelane something something...
Excessive decoration makes fonts very dancy for me. |

| Don't shoot me, but I happen to love comic sans! It is, however, not appropriate for professional stuff. But I have it on my web site and on all sorts of personal stuff. I also like Verdana a lot. In fact, I like Verdana a whole lot, and probably like it best for an all-around font. For more serious work, though, I stick with Arial most of the time. Times New Roman looks all nice and professional for like printed letters, but it's difficult to read on the 'puter. Arial's easy to read and just nice & neat. I also like Tahoma, and this one and this one and this one and this one. Actually, I like playing with fonts.
Should I start doing my accounting in purple? Hmm... maybe not.
If it makes you feel better, I don't particularly like fonts that are all swirly and fancy. Except maybe for special things that call for it.
But thanks for the opportunity to play.  |
