[edit] One Page?
Should we make one page for all six "Vista C" fonts? That makes more sense to me than having six typography stubs floating around. ModusOperandi 04:59, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Lowercase g?
Whats up in the two example images the lower case "g" characters being different? One is regular and one is italicized...but I can't think of a font that changes its g's so much between regular and italic. --Hergio 17:22, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
- It's not uncommon; it's simply got proper italic forms, rather than the oblique forms you migh be expecting. Look at the "e" and "f" and so on as well as the "a" and "g". Compare serif fonts like ITC Bookman. — Haeleth Talk 14:49, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Re: Lowercase g?
It also changes the "a". Gill Sans changes the "a" when italicized as well.
[edit] First iconic use
My Project:Shark might be the first group to use calibri as its own font, like johnston is to lul.

[edit] Forced compatibility?
Should we mention the worries over Microsoft essentially making their default documents incomptible with all other word processors since the default font is now a proprietary one? -Fuzzy 20:36, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
