I need a font!

Wrong forum but I am in urgent need of a font called FRUITY. I think you get it with the latest version of MS Word.

Dose anyone have it they could mail me?

    Thats not the font. It looks a bit like Century Gothic but thinner.

    The worst font in font history, I hate it.

    It's actually a great font, only it's overused.

    Thankfully, I've deleted it off this computer some time ago, so I don't have to look at the bloody thing.

    Comic Sans isn't.

    Using Comic Sans MS for anything other than, well, comics, should be a criminal offence.

    Times New Roman - always, always and always full stop

    Times New Roman, Arial, Trebuchet MS, Tahoma, Verdana - all just dull fonts everyone uses. This text is in Verdana unless I'm mistaken.

    I normally use Arial, I prefer the smoothness!

    We can't hand in assignments at university unless they're in size 12 Times New Roman.

    That's ridicilous. When I was at college, I wrote my English essays in size 10 font always, and I also tended to use one of those "commercial fonts".

    Obviously not the same guidelines then. It makes sense though. It all has to be double spaced as well. It gives markers a good idea of length if they're all written in the same style. It also means you don't get the odd daft cunt handing in some stupid piece written in some obscure font.

    Next person to hand in a whole essay in Wingdings gets the cane.

    Ours normally have to be 1.5 or 2 line spacing, size 12 TNR or Arial. I always make the margins smaller though 'cos word always makes them huge to start with...

    Dull font yet the only acceptable, from my point of view. Anything other than Times New Roman, 12, is just wrong - imo.

    ***changes the font to accommodate to Quarfly's new demand***

    Usually when I see people improving the aesthetic qualitites of their assignments it looks as though they're trying to make up for poor content.

    Palatino, with helvetica for headings, or Computer Modern.

    Arial narrow owns you <3

    as do Veranda and Tahoma.

    I like verdana. It's my default font.

    the fastest way to ensure that your cv ends up in the bin. i wouldn't bother reading a cv formatted in comic sans.
