Arial or Helvetica?
>>257700
They are close enough that I don't think any normal person would give a shit.
>>257700
Helvetica. I like the lower-case a.
Fuck that modern rubbish Akzidene-Grotesk is what you want.
>120 years old.
>>257706
but the lower case t in Arial is far better
>>257717
Bullshit. The descender of the lower case T extends too far out.
>>257726
do you not see the top of it????? that alone is enough to prove that Arial > Helvetica
>>257707
Akzidenz Grotesk Next is where it's at. More uniform and clean.
>>257731
That slanted shit is offensive. Your opinion is factually wrong, and you should feel bad.
>>257755
this.
Arial's fatal flaw is the upper-case R.
>>257755
How close do want your r to your t?

Those condesed texts are fucking orgasmic.
>>257707
I like bits and pieces from all of them. I want to combine all the ones I like. Is it possible in Fontographer?
>>257707
Now I want a fucking hamburger.
That Akzidenz Gotesk Next is lookin' pretty rad though.
>>257700
I personally find Arial easier to read, but nobody gives a shit about what I think.
>>257700
As a American I use Arial over the kraut's Helvetia.
But then I'm one of those rare few with a BA that love his country.

what's wrong with roboto?
I like it a lot
>>259615
The low case 'a' is too cocky.

>Arial's fatal flaw is the upper-case R.
also c, s, and miniscule t, as originally horizontal cuts are slanted, causing retarded look.
>>259988
Lol 'helvetica' is set in helvetica and 'arial' in arial. see the terminals
>>259988
did you notice that he swapped the fonts?
Arial is helvetica and vice versa on his picture
>>258003
I can't stop vomiting at the thought of you actually doing that
Akkurat or bust
>>259674
search gd archives for akzidenz grotesk. first download link should have the standard variant and next.

Only Germans and Poles have been using them specifically in the second circumbellum (1930–1955) for “Bekanntmachungen / Obwieszczenia” about planned round-ups and pogroms.
Enjoy.
are you guys retarded?
"helvetica" is set in helvetica and "arial" is set in arial, together with its respective character sets
>>257700
It's highly arbitrary.

OP If you're seriously considering between these two fonts, then your design is going to suck anyways. Might as well kill yourself or start over.
>>260030
