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.
> Hello, our office is trying to decide upon a standard Font
> to use for our manuals (we are at the beginning stages of
> creating our style guide) For my knowledge, what usual fonts are you
using?
Today we use Myriad for Western European languages. For Eastern &
Central European languages, we use News Gothic, since Myriad does not
support the WGL4 encoding.
However, we will adopt a more pragmatic and generalistic approach and
use Helvetica (in the Swiss 721 WGL4 encoding from Bitstream) as from
next year.
