The top sentence was written in Arial font, the bottom one was in Liberation Sans. Both were set to 12 pt. The differences are more pronounced as you increase the size. Below is another example featuring both fonts, with the size blown up to 24 pt. Other than the shorter capital “T” and the slightly taller fonts in general, you may spot that the lowercase “a” from Liberation Sans has a longer and curvier tail. Arial’s lowercase “t” also has a sharper head. Perhaps the most striking lack of resemblance is the number “1”. They look nowhere near the same. Some of the symbols are also prominently distinguishable. Liberation Font family was poised to be the metrically-identical replacement (ooh, fancy words) for the commonly used Microsoft fonts, e.g. Arial and Times New Roman. I was curious to see how much would people be able to tell them apart. Of course, the designs couldn’t be entirely similar. That would be plagiarism. But the effort itself is commendable.
