Bumping with a slightly different question: out of all these alternatives, which is best? Is it worth paying $49 on Veer for Hellenic Wide, or will Lonestar do the job just as well for only $25?
It depends on the job at hands, of course. At which size it will be printed, and how. And for how many different jobs it likely will be used. For example, Lonestar has a more extensive glyph coverage than Hellenic Wide.
