Re: Helvetica vs. Arial
When I worked at AB Dick ITEK Graphics we had a large poster in one room, that chronicled the history of printing, and of when new fonts were introduced.

It was really interesting

BTW - it there is a difference between Helvetica and Arial, I dont see it!

Re: Helvetica vs. Arial
Helvetica is much rounder...

But I prefer Arial with Microsoft ClearType enabled... I mean, Apple used Arial as default up till OS X. They liked it too.
