i quote:
"Just to re-iterate what Jonathan said this afternoon, he's very happy with what you've done to the map. He jsut wants the font changing from the current 'serif' style (thick and thin writing) to a 'sans' style font which is all of one thickness."
IT'S ALREADY A FUCKING SANS YOU FREAK!

sans serif was a key word for him.

Or maybe he just meant that Rotis is the single ugliest typeface in the history of the world and just wanted you to pick something slightly less horrible?
