  • Verdana is bold, friendly and round, and a mere tween at 12 years old. Her twin sister Tahoma is also popular and is often chosen in preference to their decidedly frumpy cousin Arial.

Grandpappy Times New Roman is still around doing the hard yards, and they are all proudly descended from the (capital-G) Grotesque Garamond.
