Ah ha, interesting, thank you. Cool, maybe one day I'll scan an original and have it auto-vectorified for less discerning folks like me.

I don't think I'm ever going to pay for it, to be honest. And besides, it isn't open and so I don't want it anyway.

Lots of things are hard. But I block ads and get them for free anyway.



Why not just use one of the excellent free grotesque fonts instead? Some examples:

Thank you. Much appreciated!


Neue Haas Grotesk was revived to restore the small details lost from Helvetica, so if you aren't very particular you may as well use the easily-available Helvetica. There's plenty of more interesting typefaces than Neue Haas Grotesk or Helvetica though.


I actually think I shall. Thank you.
