We are all aware of the old, overused system fonts like Arial, Verdana, Georgia, Times New Roman, Geneva, Courier New, etc. They are considered as the standard for web typography, since they are ubiquitous to every standard web browser.

Now, there are other fonts that aren’t ubiquitous, but still, they are pretty much everywhere and chances are you can use them in your websites and still get away with it.

Chris Spooner from line25.com called them “Semi Web Safe Fonts”, and referred that they can be found in multiple operating systems as standard, but are often bundled with common software applications like Microsoft Office or the Adobe Creative Suite.

This means that there are a few extra common fonts that can be used with some comfort in your CSS.

Semi Web Safe Fonts include Myriad Pro, Garamond, Palatino, Impact, Tahoma, Century Gothic, Gil Sans, Lucida, Futura, Baskerville, Hoefler Text, Cooper, Rockwell, etc.

These are some fonts you can use to spice up your WebDesignes, beaking the routine of the old standard few.
