[CR Blog] Creative Review - The Helvetica killer: I like Aktiv Grotesk a lot but its just not different enough to the free system fonts (i.e Helvetica, Arial) and showing a client what appears to them two identical fonts and saying this one is free and already on every machine and that one (Aktiv) is $X,XXX,XX to install on all your machines - when extra money and logistics are involved they tend not care about the subtle curve differences and nor do their customers - I wouldn't even bother to try to sell this font unless the client had a genuine interest in teh finer points of design and typography.

[I love typography, the typography and fonts blog] At last! FF Meta Serif | I love typography, the typography and ...: I was having this discussion with the two other designers at my company today since FF Meta [Sans] is our corporate typeface and I have to say I really can’t stand the Serif! One of them liked it -“ the other is just so sick of looking at Meta anything she hated it on site -“ but, I think the bold weights are much too 70’s [think Cooper, especially in the italic] and the lowercase “y”

[AIGA Design Forum: Typography] They're not fonts! ”” AIGA | the professional association for design: I agree that font menus should have been called typeface menus, since the options were things like Baskerville Bold Italic, not 18-point Baskerville Bold Italic (size being selected from a separate menu).
