you would buy a car from steve jobs if was only allowed to drive on certain streets wouldn't you?
the point here is communication. if a designer does something to hinder that communication willfully, he is at fault.
i have no need for the helvetica family installed, i only had the neue light version installed as i need it for a client. the smart css of the webs decided that helvetica would be enough.
must be smarter than the tools and stop blaming them.
design is not an "I'll force it down your throat" profession. You are responsible for the appearance of your clients information. choosing to make it look like shit on purpose makes you a bad designer, choosing to mock and blame pcs just makes you a fool
