A font discussion

[Mcbard]

Does anyone know the name of the font used during classic EverQuest, and if it's not common how I would go about obtaining it? Click this to see what I'm talking about: http://www.project1999.org/forums/sh...ad.php?t=26197

Assuming it is completely impossible to get ahold of the classic font, what would be the best font for readability? I'm assuming a standard sans-serif such as Helvetica would probably rock just as it does IRL while some are obviously complete shit.

I would like to figure this out bros, where are the EverQuest font experts?!

Edit: Also, as I poke around I'm noticing that certain fonts just don't show regardless (wingdings I'm looking at you) and when that happens it seems to default to something that looks a lot like Verdana. It could be Verdana for all I know, how would I find/change the default game font? Any idea why it does that? Does the client have a restriction of which fonts are acceptable somewhere either client side or serverside?
