Reply To: Bad font decisions, yes I’m talking to you Papyrus users!

First off, it takes a huge amount of restraint not to just rip into how… Oh I almost went there. Two things graphic presentation (preliminary design) fonts may make a difference to give a theme or feeling, construction documents need clear crisp legible font/typeface so that a contractor can read and install the design.
A quick question, where in the LARE exam are fonts covered? Oh that’s right they are not, our industry is about a lot more than some silly letters on a page, if you were trying to piss people off, well done. If you were trying to get a discussion of over 100 posts, well done, if you really think fonts are important go to grad school or find another profession. I don’t mean to get pissy but I just wasted an hour reading all of these posts for nothing!
