[T.B. Yoits]

Times New Roman goes to 1937 and the Times of London. It being a "relic" is a feature, not a bug.

Such fonts were made for typesetting dies in printing presses, not for modern printing and computer monitors. Why start at 1937? If it's about history, why not go back to fonts that look like ancient manuscripts?

Funny you say that. I was representing myself in a legal matter, and while the other side used Times New Roman most of the time, I actually went back to Courier, to give it a typewriter look.

There is no unanimity among the big legal publishers. Lexis went all in on sans-serif for both print and screen, and WestLaw sticks with serif for both.
