Ok, I would choose Zapf dingbats. :mrgreen: Ok, Zapf dingbats is your choice, but if you can play with it, you're true genius :D Here is some fonts (with Russian sample phrase), including Lato (1.1.37) and Lilittium (1.1.38). As you can see, the new font has fuzzy outlines ...

After update to v1.1.38 main font changed to Lilittium, and many people didn't like the new font, especially Cyrillic version.
