US bans timed-honored typeface from diplomatic correspondence
WASHINGTON (AFP) - In a sign that no matter is too small to affect internationaldiplomacy, the US State Department has issued an edict banning its longtime
standard typeface from all official correspondence and replacing it with a "more
modern" font.
In an internal memorandum distributed on Wednesday, the department declared
"Courier New 12" -- the font and size decreed for US diplomatic documents for
years -- to be obsolete and unacceptable after February 1.
"In response to many requests and with a view to making our written work easier
to read, we are moving to a new standard font: 'Times New Roman 14'," said the
memorandum, a copy of which was obtained by AFP on Thursday.
The new font "takes up almost exactly the same area on the page as Courier New 12,
while offering a crisper, cleaner, more modern look," it said, adding that after
February 1 "only Times New Roman 14 will be accepted."
"This applies to diplomatic notes," the memorandum said tersely.
There are only three exceptions to the draconian new typographical rules: telegrams,
treaty materials prepared by the State Department's legal affairs office and
documents drawn up for the president's signature, it said.
The memorandum offered no explanation for the exceptions, leaving foreign service
officers to speculate as to whether the White House, US treaty partners and
telegram readers are not yet able to handle the change.
Also, You heard it here first.

Sorry for those who were interested.
it's only playing at the expensive theatres and City Centre though anyway
does south Edmonton Common have affordable matinees?
it'd still be cheaper to go to City Centre..
