Data PointsA flowchart to decide what typeface to use
A typeface can make or break your graphic. Use Comic Sans, and no one will take you seriously ever again. Luckily, graphic designer Julian Hansen put together this flowchart for a school project to help you figure out what typeface to use. Most of you will probably be interested in the infographic branch.
I prefer to go the book route though. What typeface do you end up at?

The route to Comic Sans is amusing.

Please – how can I see a full-size (readable) version?
click the ‘flowchart’ link in the post
Clicking “flowchart” give me an image that is only about 20% larger (and still unreadable).
right click the image on the original site, and select ‘image’ to see it at full resolution
Re: “right click the image on the original site, and select ‘image’ to see it at full resolution”
My context menu doesn’t have “image” – checked both FireFox and IE. You using a Mac?
here’s a link to the full-size image: http://julianhansen.com/files/.....rge_v2.png
