When clients want an overused font.

Erik Spiekermann tweeted this link today from Fontshop, and I thought it might be helpful someday.

I know I always groan when I see Papyrus used in everything from Italian menus to Christian merchandise to organic products, and I've insisted to any of my friends that are teachers not to use Comic Sans. I haven't used Comic Sans since AIM in 6th grade- in bright blue I might add. So what can a designer do when a client suggests an overused font?


It's good to have alternatives.
