Ariail is good. What most science manuscripts are written in. It's just very universal so when I'm actually typing things I use it. But not good enough for printing. It's just bare bones nothing fancy.

Times New Roman looks too busy to me now that I'm used to Arial. Clumped and busy.

Arial is a sans-serif font
Times New Roman is a serif font so it looks more complicated and can be harder to read

This is the main reason people find switching from TNR to Arial so garish on initial use because it's very linear.

Calibri is awful I hate how that's the new MS default. Apparently it was designed to look better for HD displays where you can see pixelation in Times New Roman.

Garamond is the absolutely GOAT.

one of a handful of scientific approved fonts for manuscripts and tables. So under rated.

Garamond

Use that shite all the time when I need to print things that look professional.

(Helvetica's uncle essentially)
