If you want to be compatible with everything, drop the first 3 choices
there. ;)
- Verdana has known problems, which others have commented on.
- Arial is just plain ugly - why choose an ugly font just because it's
common?
- Helvetica is highly variable, thus unpredictable. Compare URW to Adobe
Helvetica to see for yourself.
The generic sans-serif wins by a landslide. Or the generic serif if that
style goes better with the overall design.
Or here's a novel idea: leave the family out altogether and let your
visitors decide for themselves what font to use.
