What is the most timeless font?
I am looking for a font that can be read easily in 100year or 1000years. A font nobody will link to a given period.
Garamond has already been around for more than 500 years, no reason to think it won't be legible in another 500.
Helvetica, or Times New Roman. Or any of their relatives or clones. Modeled on fonts that were modeled on fonts that were, originally, modeled (for lower case) on Renaissance Italian scribal forms, and (for upper case) Roman monumental inscriptions. Typefaces are incredibly conservative, really: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/2/21/Trajan_inscri...
Arial and Verdana are probably your best bets. The cockroaches that survived the millennia and living today have the best chances of surviving more future millennia too!
