HELP need to find Fonts with minimal cutting/nod....SIMPLIFY

Post by MeuCow »

Good afternoon. I use SCAL every day - all day. I know how to find fonts and install and use - but I have a few project that require LOTS and LOTS of words. I know how to use the feature UNION
and SIMPLIFY to reduce the amount of cutting. I'm curious, though, is there another way to find a font that would be better over another. Example. I'm using Times Roman for a file. Again, LOTS of words and it's about 5000 NODES. Is there a way I could find a VERY similar font that would be MUCH LESS nodes? Again, if I created a file, using Time Roman and replaced that with a very similar font that would require MUCH less cutting - much less nodes?!!! I GREATLY appreciate any/all help someone could offer.

Look for straight lines and basic curves and fewer details like serifs or little projections or swirly stuff.
