Microsoft has decided that it’s time to retire Calibri as the default font on all of its products. Having held that position of honor since 2007, Calibri’s departure is a pretty big deal. But the bigger question is, which lucky font will get to take its place?
That’s where you, the everyday users of Microsoft’s suite of products, come in. The company has narrowed down the list to five new possible default fonts, and it wants your input. The company revealed the fonts in a blog post Wednesday, asking readers to head to the company’s social media channels and vote for their favorite.
“A default font is often the first impression we make,” Microsoft said of the change. “It’s the visual identity we present to other people via our resumes, documents or emails. And just as people and the world around us age and grow, so too should our modes of expression.”
