TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Okay, it's always fun to watch tech writers decide what the "best" font is.
Let's put this in a different context:
• What's the best kind of wood?
• What's the best herb?
• What's the best fabric?
• What's the best program?
• What is the best prescription drug?
All together now: It depends!
As Bruce and others have noted, context matters when you are selecting
fonts. What are your goals? Where will the fonts be used (print, online,
or both)? How will they be used (i.e., what does the page design look like)?
Work with a professional typographer to create your design templates.
This is a one-time expense that will pay for itself many times over.
