Bobbi,

Personally, I prefer the cleanest font you presently have that is reproducable in many sizes. This means, generally, a font with simple shapes and strokes that don't vary much if at all from thin to thick. Thus, I'd use Helvetica or one of its many clones such as Arial.

Hi. In an effort to clean up some books, I'm
trying to standardize the fonts used in our diagrams.
Is there a particular font people feel adds great
clarity to line art? One that is an accepted standard?
