They tried again with Calibri and Cambria, and those are a lot better so here we are. Microsoft invented substitute fonts in the 90s like Verdana but they were bad so nobody used them. Notice that nothing I said was about being the most readable font, the most elegant font, being appropriate for office paper or being appropriate for a screen. ![]() It's a knock-off of Times which was invented to maximize the amount of text that could legibly be put down onto newsprint by The Times of London.
