SANS SERIF FONTS
The following fonts are SIMILAR to each other, but not identical enough to
warrant deleting one over the other. The similarities are subtle, but in many
cases, the difference in size at the same pointsize level is the reason for my
having kept them.
Revue & Roost Heavy Roostheavy is a slight bit bolder than Revue.
Upsilon & Chitown Upsilon is a bolder version. There are two
Chitowns, and one is smaller than the other.
Upsilon is the same size as the larger Chitown
and Chitown has a more complete character set.
Paris & UpperEastSide Paris is a smaller font and has a more complete
character set.
Vagrounded & Univers Vagrounded is slightly narrower and this copy
is missing the "G".
BODY TEXT
Other Sans Serif fonts may also be nearly identical, but there are so many of
them out there in different weights and widths, yet of the same basic style,
that is difficult to sort them out. The above fonts are just "slightly out
of the ordinary" as far as sans serif goes, and in most cases are more suitable
for headlines than for body text. Because they differ from the usual body text,
they were more easily noticed to have a similar, yet different, counterpart.
Experiment with the ones you find - there is quite likely one that will fit
precisely, size-wise, with the project at hand.
