Bored with TNR, Arial, Garamond, and Verdana - Any Ideas?

Hi

Thanks but I tried Helvetica once because I adore the way it looks and
went bonkers one time because the majority of the printers I worked with
didn't have it and I went nuts trying to obtain it

Sometimes sans serif heading and serif body can look backwards but I
once saw a TOC where it looked really stunning. It was in one of the
Adobe Templates - their Sample Safety Manual they have in their Sample
Templates- version 6 or 7 I believe

The word "Table of Contents " was in TNR ad the rest in Arial and it
really looked nice

Anyway thanks for the email

Barbara

I've never understood why people use a serif face for heads and
a sans serif face for body--that simply looks backwards to me.

For a long time we used Helvetica (or its ugly imitator Ariel) for
heads and Times for body. Boring but effective.
