lol! I was going to say webdings.

Trade Gothic
Franklin Gothic
Swiss BT

are great alternatives to Helvetica.

However, helvetica is as classy as they come. Just make sure to use a bit of variation in the size and weight of the typeface.

please avoid times new roman lol.

caslon is a good suggestion for a serif font.

yeah, i think it requires the .pfb file to be present aswell as the .pfm, anyways, it was just a tiny bit different to the first one, so i deleted it from my server and edited the post.

Posted by Alex on Jan-15-2009 02:50:

Use Comic Sans MS.

Georgia is really nice but you have to do all numbers in a different font because they look fucked up

Myriad Pro is one my favs.

Yes, I like that one too. I think that's the one Discoteca uses.

got a bit inspired and just spent 3 hours redoing my entire resume

I used Blue-Highway-D-Type for headings and Arial Narrow for descriptions

Posted by Frenkieee on Jan-15-2009 09:32:

I like Cambria.. writing my thesis in that one.

Posted by treeboo on Jan-15-2009 16:33:

As Ben mentioned, the Myriad family is nice.

Univers Condensed is another nice family.

i also find myself partial to Helvetica and Bank Gothic
