So I guess you're not font of that typeface?

The Minearverse 6: Fiery Thread of Death
[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath. Oh, and help us get Terriers dvds!

What I hate worse than any font choice are backgrounds that make text unreadable. Like, umm, 90% of the intros to the Sandman...

I have a survey question for all you fantastic font freaks!
Readability text, basic paragraph text, which do you favor Serif or Sans Serif?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Paper or screen?
eta: I'm guessing from your post elsewhere about your book-editing project that you're talking print. In that case, serif.

Yes and no, amy. It will be in print form after it is downloaded as a pdf from a website, which means it could be read on the screen as well. Thus, my dilemma.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
Do you anticipate that people will be reading it in PDF form online?

What is even happening?
On screen I dislike a serif. On the page, I like it.
Oh look, my trademark nastiness is quoted on wired. My mother would be so proud.
Oh Tamara, that wasn't nasty. Saying, "Way to get the stank of failure on a show a year ahead of time, you nimrods!" would be what I was thinking, and? Nasty.

Um, yes please! Also, what's the latest on Miracle Man. That's the title, right? It seems like I haven't heard anything about it for a while, with all the Dollhouse talk, not that I mind the Dollhouse talk.
After looking at Chocolate Box, I fell in love with it and downloaded my first font ever. Well, I guess I downloaded Open Office, which came with fonts, but still. Only, I'm running Open Office on a MacBook with X11, and it seems like the font is outside of X11, but not inside of it, so I'm off to Buffistechnology to see if anyone can help me make the pretty font usable!
