This will also take some load off you server even though serving fonts isn't such a big deal. Keep in mind this is far from ideal in most cases but would allow you to avoid licensing costs and reduce the time it takes for your website to load (since it will not be downloading fonts). Your font stack could be something like font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif and you'd be covering the most common devices and operating systems (except for Android which I think doesn't come with any of those two font families). Unfortunately Arial Narrow isn't included in iOS but, since both Helvetica and Helvetica Neue come pre-installed in all Apple devices, you wouldn't have to worry too much about it. It comes pre-installed in (almost?) every Windows version and also Apple devices.
Unless you need something that looks almost exactly like Helvetica, Arial might be an option you should consider. The 100 and 900 weights of Museo Sans Condensed are served with PostScript-based outlines for smooth rendering at display sizes, while the 300, 500, and 700 weights (plus italics) have been manually TrueType hinted for crisp rendering at small sizes.Ĭondensed typefaces take up less horizontal space, so they can be set larger.Everyone's been giving you names of fonts that look similar to Helvetica (some more than others) but depending on what kind of project it is that you're working on you might not need any of those. Left: Museo Sans Condensed with Museo Slab Right: Museo Sans Rounded with Museo Sans Condensed and Museo Sans Five weights, each with an italic, make this slender style very versatile - and a great addition to projects already using fonts in the Museo superfamily. Like its wider predecessor, Museo Sans Condensed is a neutral, steady geometric sans with few frills. Museo Sans, a perennial Typekit favorite, now comes in a Condensed width.
