Off topic from the original question, but I give two thumbs up to the book "Just my Type"!

I like Eurostile a lot? (bought it from Adobe for myself decades ago and loved the squarish look, particularly Eurostile Wide for some uses). Google recommends Orbitron as "similar" to Eurostile. However, I have not used that one yet, so please check it out yourself. In my current company, we use fonts that are likely to be public or generally available, and Google fonts tend to fit that requirement well. Some time back, our design folks chose Nunito and Montserrat from Google as our nominal sans serif "standards" for our template for presentation materials. I have not started using them yet ... My favorite for PowerPoint decks is in the Segoe family - regular and bolded Segoe UI looks very elegant (to me anyway - beauty is in the eye of the beholder, right? ??) when presented on a screen. Z P.S. You probably did not realize that you opened a Pandora's box for me by discussing fonts! ?? I am a geek in this matter - I own a printed copy of Adobe's book of their fonts from some years ago, and also own these books on fonts: https://www.amazon.com/Just-My-Type-About-Fonts/dp/1592407463/ref=sr_1_2?crid=R0NOZ8M8EM7G&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.NchNMphdD2-FiEIcjZ5Q0ozH5yBfBztwdrlben1DLTyqYBItlQ598x0ppw-Ru8NmJ0PWQBA-V_Ha7kWywC291EksvsnJUoYkL_7TiyYxClP6LSfEL5qmku8X94QxZc4QgRO-997lmWBF_KsDUSX3wUuvQtMWOTHBbBdMRvGXxm2w1dlItaZ27cDoXaaz2FvQuLcDAddYK_FLJwyNswNhnpCffz-7ZHXC8LIBT0AUXcE.XTtWJ6K5FPl2N_PD44p3lUZmsc7vynljyiy_qe7hNVI&dib_tag=se&keywords=Just+My+Type&qid=1711073475&sprefix=just+my+type%2Caps%2C238&sr=8-2 and https://www.amazon.com/Why-Fonts-Matter-Sarah-Hyndman/dp/1584236310/ref=sr_1_2?crid=38PAKFEX3F62A&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.qRAZgEPI8_lVrfYxajj7Py_9NW3q9VdRbwgIpJCaMz6NpJziCb4_thVNGzaGyNL50wo4jkanh6VWQfpLe27FBGAajIGGDmn6y0Wa0qXCScBhhGy7ZxopDAEpWlhAt2wvKKArd-TFcdRqt1fL2I2afGLxRWup7v92RhqWF8ZhCDjVXo00hL04Uo3VYMzFEE6eXZkCAPoj60b6_o69KwiUNPksZYqW4MWwax1mUUo7vhylSO__ExjE4U2wUeqmDATZSE2cydcq5Bqkc62T2zTkwJOrsgONEtPD6e4aBxGLcfs.eBIWY8LAx3FyRfvZYmM0fbu8aOrm2RgxQWgiWzYJG4M&dib_tag=se&keywords=fonts&qid=1711073562&sprefix=fonts%2Caps%2C237&sr=8-2 ________________________________ From: Framers <framers-bounces+syed.hosain=aeris....@lists.frameusers.com> on behalf of Tammy Van Boening <tamm...@spectrumwritingllc.com> Sent: Thursday, March 21, 2024 07:02 AM To: Framers <framers@lists.frameusers.com> Subject: [Framers] San Serif Font? CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization. Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. OK all, I am doing a major overhaul on an existing template for a client. I very much like the San serif fonts of Eurostile or Roboto, but I really don t want to break my cardinal rule of using proprietary fonts that have to be embedded in the final PDF. I really would like to be able to use a font that comes standard with windows, but which font, in your opinion, that comes standard with windows would be the closest to either of these two fonts? My client saw a template that I was working on for another project and really commented that they liked the look of the Roboto font and then I showed him one with the EUROSTILE font and they like that one just as much. That said, I don t wanna leave my client with having to deal with fonts in their source files. Thanks! Tammy Sent from my iPhone.
