Helvetica is the default font used in Mac OS and unfortunately, it is not available in Windows. Since most of the team are not "Macsters" I had to search for downloadable Helvetica fonts for them through the internet. While I was going through the sites, I encountered a mini-quiz determining "the font that best suites your personality". I eventually remembered the one-hour long documentary about this Helvetica font that discussed its history, structures, etc. (Yes, this font has a documentary. A... one -hour long documentary.) One notable quote in the docu was "Type is saying things to us all the time. Typefaces expresses a mood, an atmosphere". Therefore, fonts can merely reflect our personality. Out of curiosity, I entered the quiz and answered some personality-based questions.
HOW ABOUT YOU? What font are you? Check it out!
