July 9, 2009Aller is indeed very professional font, made by Bruno Maag from Dalton Maag. It’s designed for The Graphic Arts Institute of Denmark’s new visual identity, and as part of the EULA it’s free for a year I think. The Kontrapunkt font is made by a frim called Kontrapunkt which is recognized as having the best font designers in Denmark;)
So they do indeed look profesional;)

July 24, 2009I was wondering if maybe WDL would do a list of fonts to avoid? You know, like ones that are rip-offs of other fonts, have bad spacing, characters missing, etc. ? Could be useful!

October 5, 2009Is Romeral free for commercial use? The designer doesn’t make it clear on his (abandoned) blog and there’s no contact info for him.
