   Working on a UI for a financial app that has to live within the framework of third party sites. That means limited colour palette and personality. But of course it's still gotta look good.

   I'm trying a slightly flatter aesthetic, though the jury's still out on Calibri as the body font. Might have to revert to vanilla Arial or Lucida.

   Love the super-clean look. Maybe that's its personality.

   Calibri is looking real good here, Dave. Can you just font-stack it and let it fall back?

   @Trevor - biggest problem with that is the different x-height of the Windows Cleartype fonts. They're all a bit smaller than normal, so falling back to Lucida / Arial / whatever ends up resulting in much larger type.

   Still, in an application like this, I don't know if that'll really matter too much.

   I had problems before with the smaller x-height of Calibri and Corbel. You can try using font-size-adjust css property so Arial and Lucida render as small as Calibri. IE doesn't support it but it's more likely that IE users have the font installed

   Figured that would be the case
