I really like Palatino and Gotham
but there are so much more fonts i like

My Favorite font is Futura, for its simplicity...

This is so cool post my fav fond is NeoPrint M319

helvetica.

I have recently fallen back in love with the Badaboom font. It's a tough call between that and FF Harlem for me right now!

Only one favorite? That's really hard, anyhow I'd been loving "Rockwell" lately so that must suffice :)

I must admit I love Futura!

cool love typographie

That's pretty easy!
My favorite font is the Thesis Font-Family. I totally love how this family, consisting of a sans-serif a semi-serif and a serif, work seamlessly together! Awesome type-job by Lucas de Groot!

Best regards from germany, Oliver

Frutiger!

My favorite font at the moment is "Karabine" from Jonathan Paquette

Wow that book looks awesome!! My favourite font, hands down, is Gotham.

Another book giveaway! Lovely!
This is just a great book. Books about typography are always good to look into when you create some work. I mean with typography you can make your work look stunning or fall into the deepest canyon. Typography is mostly the key to give it the right last touch! This is a great example of a typography books, which turns it the right way round. Use typography as your starting point, and create something around it. Lovely! But the best thing is, in this book (as far as i saw in the bookshop) it uses the latest fonts. From script to sans serif to blackletters. The cutting edge of the fonts is used in this book! That's why it's such a great book in my opinion.

Oh i saw the second page was written in dutch :D now it happens to be I'm a dutch guy as well. (oh one more thing keep up the good work with the friday fresh fonts ^^)

My fav font: Bank Gothic

Cheers!

I love Typographic designs, specifically minimalistic one's where fonts are the main focus of the design. My Favourite font is a font called "Frutiger" it's my company's corperate font an I love it, just weighting it differently gives some awesome results !!!

Favourite font ... I could be cliché and say Helvetica (I do love it, along with Univers), but at the moment I'll have to say Rockwell

I ? Rockwell

my favourite font would be Arial! it is probably one of the most commonly used font type in the world. not only is it simple, it has a whole font family to boot! (:

Caecilia!

Still a fan of Clarendon.

Wow, that book looks awesome! ?
Anyways my fonts of choice are Scala and Bello Pro.

One of my favorite fonts is Chevin because I find it elegant and it looks good in most weights.

Thanks for organizing the contest, BTW. :)

I'd have to say Futura. It is very beautiful and surprisingly versatile being so simple!

My favourite font at the moment is Advent Pro

I would love to get my hands on that book..

btw love ur site ;)

Currently my font of choice is Eras Light.

i love Century Gothic

I really like 'Palitino Linotype', sans-serif;

fav font... Univers, very versatile

FF UNIT!

Maybe a bit boring, but I still find Helvetica a damn nice font

My fav font was Myriad pro until I watched the documentary then bought the font Helvetica. It truly is the most complete font out there, the complexity of its simplicity just blow's me away.

DIN is always reliable, using Gotham more these days though

Helvetica, of course.:)

My favorite is Frutiger.

my favorite font is OldDreadfulNo7 BT!! thanks for this giveaway!

Another giveaway, wooohooo!!!
I like FFUnit. Really cool stuf from Erik!

I'm gonna go with Frutiger!

My favorite font is a boring popular one :S Helvetica...it's just so versitile! I like it's rounded version too :D

we luv ITC Modern 216

Helvetica Neue is my favorite font - becasue it suits your needs for anything you are doing, branddesign, webdesign, typography, logotypes. THE perfect font.

Avant Garde \o/
New and not-new at the same time, if you know what i mean haha

I love Century Gothic for its' classy, elegant look

For long, my favorite font must be Georgia, because of it's applicability to web-use. It really can spice up a website if used correctly.

Helvetica! Any doubt?

love typography! Best font: Franklin Gothic

Mine is AvantGarde, so modern.

My go to typeface is Myriad Pro. It's clean, crisp, and has Greek, Cyrillic characters, and oldstyle figures. Awesome!

My favorite font is Book Antiqua. Aways find a way to use it in something.

My favourite font: http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thesis_(lettertype)

My go to typeface has to be Myriad Pro. I just love the way it looks in comps- clean and crisp:)

I like Green Piloww's hand-written style, so this is my fav font.

Nice!

My favourite font is cooper black!

My favorite font is Futura.

I've got many favourite fonts like Helvietica Neue, you can do a lot a things with this one.

Hye !

I'm in love with the OFFICINA Serif... :)

My favorite font has to be Helvetica Neue, it's just pure simplicity and beauty.

I'm an Helvetica guy - just love that stylish and clean font. But well I'm in love with fonts and typography, so I have lots of fonts to play with :D

I like Futura (:

century gothic.
it matches so well for me, either in design or a serious-office document :D

helvetica extra thin is the sexiest font.

My favorite font is Comic Sans, but if I can't find that then I would have to say Papyrus. And Zapfino. Because it's not like they suck or anything. I mean come on, I just wanna win something here!

Oh and btw my favorite font is the Eurostile, it's a font which can be used in many different ways. Because the strokes of the font are both very emotional and non emotional. For some weird reason it's the way i love this font :)

Museo Sans is one of my favourite nowadays.

I posted a comment twice...oops :(

Mine is Lucida Grande, easy and clear when small on a web page..

Myriad - I like it because it have good curves, great variety (like helvetica) and good readability. Some letters like y, j and g gives some prettiness to a name logo, that I am using a lot.

But actually I am doing a lot of logos, and the better option (for me) is doing a exclusive type/font. Then, I guess that with this book I could improve my skills.

My favourite is Eurostile.

My favorite font at the moment is Aller.

DIN all the way!

I love Tahoma .. Looks good in Arabic and English ..Even cuter in Arabic :)

This looks like a very useful book! You can never have enough inspiration. My favorite font of all time is hands down Helvetica. It never lets me down! :)

My favorite is Philosopher at this time

My favourite font right now is probably Georgia in bold italic.. it's just the perfect combination of cuddly and strict.

My favourite is Andalus

my favorite font is Century Gothic, really essential

I say Meta but it's hard to decide only one favourite

** Rockwell **

Very nostalgic and little rockbilly, perfect to old rock schooll.

My favourite is Kepler,
looks great when printed

Awesome book giveaway :) !!!!!!!! Hmmmm my favorite font without saying Helvetica or Gill Sans....

My favorite font would have to be Bebas :) It's super strong and awesome for anything all caps and condensed :)

You should try it!!! You can find it here!

http://www.dafont.com/search.php?psize=m&q=bebas

Another great font I really love to use is Blue Highway. Really cool sans serif font. I love the diagonal cut away accents! It relly lends a hand to playing with the type in cool ways!

You can find it here!!!

http://www.dafont.com/blue-highway.font

Those are two sort of off handed font's I love.
Good luck to everyone!!!

Museo Font Family, especially Museo 700 by Jos Buivenga

This book rocks! I want it so much! My favorite font is Avant Garde!

Thks.

Metroscript

I love helvetica family :)

My favorite font is Myriad, I think. It's really easy to use.

Hmm... I seem to have a different favourite font every year. Few years ago I would have said Badaboom and last year I would have said Myriad Pro. This year I seem to be drawn to Futura a lot for some reason.

Helvetica

Well it is so difficult to choose a specifict font since each font has its own personality and is on itself a way to express specifical concepts... But, if you want a font that can work in almost any context that would be the Helvetica family, they are elegant, simple, light or heavy... I guess Helveticas are my fave fonts... and to be a lil more specific, Helvetica ultra thing... so elegant and practical.

jeeez..... picking a favorite font is like picking a favorite song... ummm... I like Avant Garde quite a bit at the moment.

I always like Helvetica :)

I like AvantGarde...because it's clean and modern but also pretty timeless :)

I like AvantGarde...because it's clean and modern...however, there are too many awesome fonts to just pick one, i guess it depends on the mood I am and what type of work I am doing :)

Won't be too original but... Helvetica Neue is my favourite font...

My favorite font has to be Helvetica. It's clean, simple and can somehow always be placed into design works.

Helvetica Neue Light.

My favorite font is Eurostile. So fresh & clean a font must be! :)

HandVetica is my favorite

I love helvetica

My favorite fonts... pff.. difficult one. I keep changing favorites every now and then. Though there are always a couple that I keep coming back for when working on projects. Sometimes just for the roughs, sometimes for the finished logo, identity... well.. I think everybody has certain fonts they just feel familiar with. For now I would probably have to say “Dolly” from Underware. It's a gorgeous font in small print and has quite a bit of personality when used in big sizes. Also gotta love the book that came with it! And Underware is just doing great stuff non-stop.

Love your articles! Keep up the good work. =)

Futura

Trade Gothic Extended!

Verdana. simple, objective, easy on the eye.

My favourite has to be Myriad Pro, it just has so many uses, it's modern, but so crisp that if used effectively, can fit into any image.

My favorite would be Miso and Helvetica!

I love Myriad Pro! Such versatility and great legibility, especially in big blocks of text in small pt sizes. Does the job quite elegantly.

I love sans-serif fonts.
But Helvetica won my heart :).

I love Helvetica, I'm probably not alone with this opinion... ;)

My favorite font is Georgia, simple, every computer has it, and beautiful.

Like a lot of people, Futura.

Kabel, contemporary, clean, what more can you ask for.

My favorite serif font is Antique Caslon and my favorite sans serif font is Helvetica.

I'm an admitted font monger, and my favorite font is Nina.

my favorite font is "Plastic Pill"
because of its structure and it can be used in almost any style of design

Comic Sans... I'm a rebel

Advent Pro.

Definitely Helvetica, but also Nevis ;-)

Avenir is where its at!

Avant Garde, simple and clean.

My personal Favorite is "Arnold Boecklin" font. It's the one That 70's Show logo is made out of.

I did a little project with some kynetic typography with it :P

Nice Book!

Gill Sans!
An amazing and versatile font, I used it in countless projects.

Um livro desses merece vir pro Brasil...hahaha

My favorite font is Helvetica ;)

it's an hard match... but I think I'll choose Meta.
Clean, readable and not so abused

Can't live without Futura!

FACET. Recent yet traditional.

Avant Garde

My favorite font would be Minion Pro.

It was the first font that I used to "design" something that was not Times New Roman or Arial. I was in awe and it introduced me to the world of fonts and that it was ok to go outside the norm...well at least tip toe.

My definite favourite is Verdana.

"Zero Hour" is my favorite font today

I'm going to have to say Museo is my favourite font. I'm absolutely loving the style of it :)

I'd have to say helvetica

My favorite font is Calibri.

Can you name another font which has got a film directed soley at its inception and changing of design.
Helvetica.

Georgia!

Georgia!

My personal fav is avant garde with helvetica comin at a close second.

Georgia!

I like Party LET!

Love Futura!

Helvetica all way.....

Century Schoolbook..nice and clean

A House Industries font, Chalet.

I prefer Trebuchet..Because it is neat but with a certain feeling in it..

My is helvetica. Simple, sleek, modern and comes in a variety of styles perfert for any situation.

Like many, I love Helvetica as it's so versatile. I try to mix it up by using Alte Haas Grotesk as well, just so I don't look like everyone else lol.

Century Gothic baby!!!

It's hard to say... but I still really love Hypatia Sans Pro. So clean!!

the book looks amazing!

my favourite typeface is akzidenz grotesk.

My favourite font is Myriad pro!!

I have to say Garamond.

"Under The Cherry moon"

(not an example)
http://www.flickr.com/photos/35523586@N07/3620757137/

Helvetica Neue is a classic!

My favorite font is Wingdings.
Makes me remember my chilhood "secret coded" letters.
It´s not in anyway a good font for designing things, but it´s creative.

Frutiger is number one. god i love it. lol.

Hancock

Comic Sans all the way!

FF DIN.

avenir. or futura!

My favourite font is that u see and realize urself..
Depends

My favorite font is opentype ALLER. It seems to fit a real cross section of projects I build and its worked wonders for some of the poster design that I have done. Nice and clear but contemporary.

HELVETICA and TIMES NEW ROMAN
On the things you can do with those two...

Helvetica. It's just pure and I love minimalism. You don't need anymore that that :)

comic sans & papyrus ;)

Univers, hands down.

My favorite has got to be Frutiger. Just absolutely adore the light weights of the family.

Awesome book! Really love it people putting al the work in it.
My favourite font? Well, hard choice but i'll have to say myriad pro.
It's simple and can be used in many ways!

Thanks for the article!

My favorite font would have to be Hoefler.

o hai! i'm kinda new here (well, new at posting at least hehe) but wow, i have to say, what an amazing book *¬*, i'll give my lucky cat a shot

one of my favorite fonts is 'quicksand', 'cause it's clean, simple, easy to read and it's got a big family :D so it can be really versatile

salu2

Gotta be Akzidenz-Grotesk.

thanks for the info! that's a sweet book.

Aristotle Punk because its name makes me think of an ancient Greek dressed like a member of the Clash, and most importantly its grunge appearance which i love to use for my friend's mixed tape album covers.

Pretty simple: Helvetica.

Helvetica of course !

FF Blur has been my favorite for a while, so much fun to play with.

My fav one: Helevtica's sexy cousin... Futura! ;)

Johnston Underground from P22 cause its plain sick and looks good anywhere

My favorite font would be Century Gothic, it seems to look loo great no matter where you put it.

Trajan all the way.

Franklin Demi Gothic Condensed. I like Helvetica for it's multipurpose but when i'm looking through fonts i always come across franklin and think "That's a great font i should use that". Then I realize it's the font i want to use for everything.

Not a big fan of Erik Spiekermann. He's kind of a lunatic, IMO. I choose Akzidenz-Grotesk.

My favorite font has got to be Helvetica. So many different iterations and all of them can take a lot of abuse.

My favorite font is definitely DIN.

wow a lot of people want this book......... and I DO TO..... hehe
my favorite type would have to be Avenir or Futura...... i don't really want to choice between them, they both work really well together with headings and body text.

but if Avenir and Futura got together and had a child then that would be my favorite type face....

so to sum it all up my favorite typeface is the unborn child of Avenir and Futura.

Futura. It's just so perdy. =3

Garamond! for me.

I really love Helvetica. Just like 48 of the commenters above me. On the opposite end of the spectrum, I absolutly loathe Comic Sans. It makes anything you type hard to take seriously. And it's absolutely terrible when websites with long articles use it.

there´s a lot of fonts i like..... but i really love helvetica !!!!!

hm.....I must say Gill Sans!

I'll have to say Century Gothic. It has been used by everyone at least once. It's so simple and I like the how a bit rounded they are. Like the circle in "b" or "d" the "o" the "g", etc. It's a very nice font if you look at it and looks great with any design.

I like cooper, its elegant, not sharp at all, i like round fonts,cooper so aesthetically put together as a family, and i like the way it is, clean, smooth, and bubbly. It has like a playful side like if the font was to talk to you- more like in the style of HEY LOOK AT ME, IM COOL AND NOT RELATED TO HELVETICA!, wow tmi, in other words it's awesome font.
fredy

I like Gotham.

<3 helvetica.

The books looks like it's full of inspiration. One of my favorite fonts is Avant Garde Gothic.

When it comes to typo - Helvetica is the ONE!

Greetings. I do not have a favourite typeface as a font is their to help describe or, if you may, dress a word(s). So my question to all typographers out there is what is your favourite word - and now what typeface does it wear! Really enjoy your site and it is truly of benefit to my graphic design students right down here at the tip of Africa, boom, boom, boom. Ps. the book will benefit a whole lot more. W

I love Miriad Pro, NeoTech, then Tahoma
