  What is that site that matches fonts? For example matching a sans serif headline font with a serif body copy font. Fonts that work nicely together.

  Thanks

  not what the font. fonts in use looks pretty cool.

  I remember there was a site that you could type in a font and it would match other fonts to it.

  Using typefaces from the same artist/foundry is a great practice for starters. After that, it's nice to use fonts that were drawn around the same time and in the same geographic place as well. If that doesn't help, use your best judgement.

  ^ would need to know a lot more about the project to suggest a headline type because they will define its personality

  if you‘re looking for a quiet unobtrusive match of Helvetica with a serif typeface check out Utopia, I found it sits very well with it...
