As for the alias and TrueType with chrome there are a million gazzilion ways to battle how chrome renders fonts. Generally about Helvetica though I do agree. | ||

execute and it adds a span to every individual character. Then you have to apply CSS to each character, individually, you want to modify. It's not even per general character, allowing you to set kerning for the letter "e" globally, but rather for each individual goddamn unique character. | ||

And this has been known for a long while. ew. | ||

The font. The font. The real font. It should be supported anywhere. With best hinting. Helvetica renders the actual, the pure glyphs. | ||

It was a response to the guy saying he used verdana on his site. The company I used to work for was an elearning company and we also used verdana everywhere. It's a good font for reading on the web, but it's not good looking at all. Right now I'm having a small crush on open sans. | ||

My ability to tell the different between Arial, Helvitica and Times New Roman (Which I use for word documents) is non-existent. Helvetica and Arial are sans-serif typefaces whereas Times New Roman is a Serif Typeface: http://www.webdesignerdepot.com/2013/03/serif-vs-sans-the-final-battle/. If you view the typefaces at 12pt or larger the difference should become clearer. On June 05 2013 07:42 salle wrote: It was a response to the guy saying he used verdana on his site.

Salle, is there a big focus on TL being able to work without javascript? + Was the elearning company that you worked for a big fan of moodle by any chance? | ||
