    Your favorite fonts?

    as a typographer, i have to say that arial is a poorly designed font. it is in fact an arbitrarily re-designed helvetica. i found an article that explains very well the disappointing and spineless history of arial. two excerpts : "Arial has a rather dubious history and not much character...
