Default OT: Changing Attributes of "No Style" Option

Hi Dayo

*Now* I actually have legit reasons for the font changes. Palatino 12pt
is about the only font I like on-screen, Garamond is very nice for job
applications, and I suspect the thesis czars demand TNR, bummer.


Our university got its own CI-font a couple of years ago. Looks neat in
letters and stuff, a book with it, well, I dunno. But posters etc.?

OTOH, we have this research assistant here who refuses to write with
anything except Tahoma. A0-format posters included. I'm beginning to
understand CI people :-)

«Corporate Identity»

The University is the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, the
abbreviation in German beeing «ETH». The font is hence named – «ETHLight».

Thanks much, I had not a clue either....

I wonder how many people pick up on the fact that all letters, etc from a
company are in a certain font...

No, undergrad was when I used to play around with fonts--whenever writer's
block struck, I spent some time deciding which font matched the paper best,
and swear I had a rationale for it. Still drives me crazy when *all* my
students just accept the default TNR.



I admit I prefer "TMS RMN" as available in my copy of Word 1.1a for OS/2...
