favorite fonts that arch nicely

Post by balletcostumemom »

What are your favorite fonts to use that arch nicely? I'm noticing that not all do this nicely and I'd like to compile a list of fonts that work fairly well with little tweaking. Would you tell me your favorite block and script fonts that arch? I have an older computer so the fonts that came with it are ick. I'm on a download mission.

I don't have a list of specific fonts, but I look for a strong baseline or top line so that the curve is smooth and well defined. This can usually be done with all caps, or with using a monocase font like Pharmacy or SF Speedway.
Unless I have a very long line of text I usually avoid slanted letters, too.
