In case you don't know, there's a radio programme on the BBC called Desert Island Discs. Each week it features a celebrity "Castaway" and they can choose 8 records to take with them to this mythical island. The Bible and the complete works of Shakespeare are already on the island.
That's what I'm trying to explain here, only it's fonts not records.
You, the Castaway, are allowed to choose up to 8 fonts that you would take to the island on a usb drive and in this instance a sun-powered laptop is at your disposal along with a Xara software of your choice and one other software program.
Here's my choice: From the Latinotype Foundry basically any 8 I'm not bothered too much which ones, as long as Latina, Latino Samba and Branding are included.
I'll also opt for Illustrator loaded with the Astute Graphics plugins.
I'd be interested to know what your choices would be...
Bob.
