Favorite Font? - Page 2

Another Comic Sans fan I'm afraid.
I've liked it ever since seeing the Ban Comic Sans site, with all the merchandise featuring Comic Sans.
Thought it was one of the better on-line jokes.

My favorites are Bitstream Vera Sans Mono followed by Microsoft's Consolas. Both are monospace fonts that look good for text editing needs (source code editing).

I have a bunch of favourites, not sure what order they're in, but: Halo font; chiller; and courier new 'cos it's useful for guitar tabs and text art and stuff like that.

It is truly an awesome font. I myself have a few versions, as well as the Predator font, which is almost as cool.

Yup, I probably saw the same show as you when it was on PBS recently. I liked it so much I took it out of the library and watched again (Shhh, I made a copy)! Another great show was on a week later about crossword puzzles and profiled the guy who edits the NY Times crossword. Both documentaries are great.

Yay this thread makes me happy!

Not sure about mine though... off the top of my head Imprint comes to mind.

Calibri is definitely the best! I have it set as everything..

Best font, or at least for now..
