Trebuchet is another sans-serif typeface, which got its name after a medieval siege machine with the same name. It was widely used as an alternative to Arial and was the default font of some of the earlier versions of Windows, such as Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003. Tahoma belongs to the sans-serif typeface. This new and improved version was introduced and bundled on most Windows devices (and has been adopted by others since). Garamond is another old-school font that dates back to styles used in 16th century Paris. It’s another large font that makes it perfect for the web, traditionally used for headings and print-style ads. So while it’s great for certain circumstances, make sure to avoid pairing this serif font with others (like Times New Roman) which might look minuscule in comparison. Georgia is similar to Verdana in size and stature (with bigger-than-usual letters compared with fonts of the same size). The letters are almost elongated, which makes it easy to read online. Verdana is a true web font because (1) the simple sans serif lines and (2) it’s super-large size. CourierĬourier is the old monospace stand-by available on almost all devices and operating systems. It’s also considered a monospaced font (as opposed to the serif vs. Courier NewĬourier New, similar to Times New Roman before it, is a variation of another old classic. It’s among the most popular on Windows devices and is a new variation on the old Times font. Times New Roman is to serif what Arial is to sans serif. It’s often substituted on Windows devices for other interesting (read: more beautiful) font choices.
It’s one of the most widely used sans-serif fonts (which means no little curls at the end of each letter). Arial is like the de facto standard for most.
