Re: JG 2 - Volume Three

No, I hate all sans-serif fonts. They simply look cheap (and scream "computer, computer"), are not readable to my eyes, and in general give me a headache. And quite interestingly, you are very unlikely to find sans-serif fonts used for the main text in books from 1980s or older. I never have encountered a single one, so I presume it is a very recent phenomenon invented by effing computer people. Another font which should be banned is Times New Roman.

The best fonts for serious books are e.g. Perpetua and Adobe Jenson Pro. Both are beautiful, curvaceous and readable. And economical.
