I don't know about you all but I'm really tired of Garamond, Optima, Goudy, Palatino, etc. Where can I find new "classic" Roman fonts. Not looking for anything extreme - just a little change. Guess I'm hitting my mid-life font crisis.

Hi Jean, there are some very good fonts right here at the "Letterhead Fonts" site. Mister Kooky, Esorotic and a few others are free, and they snap up a layout noend. I bought Walldog which is one of my "old Time" favourites!! [Wink]

New classic roman fonts???? most roman fonts are based on "old" letterstyles, a "classic" has to earn the name. Goudy was developed a very long time ago, as well as Garramond and Pallantino. But if you want NEW fonts you have been pointed in the right direction already.
a personal favorite....  - [Wink]
