Of all the fonts...
This may perhaps bore some people, but do any of you have a favorite font? For some reason even a book's font can give me a hint at its atmosphere and style; I can tell whether the book is old or new, whether it is intended for scholars or dreamers, for study or leisure.
I, for example, am drawn to old typewriter fonts. Newton's Principia was first published in a slightly beaten, but scholarly typewriter font (by the way, does anyone know where I can find this font online?). Anyone?
