yowser, i didn't expect this thread to go on to the early hours of the night and into the next day. what a bunch of geeks you are

i think i'll go with arial or verdana.
i don't seem to have helvetica? where is it?

i watched a documentary about a font once, think it was helvetica. is that the one whinegums is talking about?

helvetica is the mac version of ariel, but looks rubbish on a pc, so don't use it (in case the people you send it to have a pc).

it doesn't really matter though as long as it's tidy.

DragonLowFatSpread - yes, that was probably the documentary - it was on last year, in the BBC Imagine strand.

I am a design geek and proud!!!

it was strangely watchable.
guess that makes me a geek too.
