Playing with Georgia

Headings like the following:

    4. Keep the measure honest
    The knobs that matter

Very AI, and irritating.

I never liked it that much. Yes, it came with WinXP and used it in my physics reports when I had no idea about LaTeX trying to emulate the Computer Modern look of them, but when I learned some LaTeX found out you could use a font that became one my favorite serif fonts ever, Cambria. I still use it from time to time with ConTeXt.

Counterpoint: stretching fonts is commonly regarded as a typographic sin, and a condensed form of Georgia exists: https://carterandcone.com/font/georgia/

> Georgia is a timeless typeface that comes free on almost every computer.

Just not Windows 3.1–98/NT, Classic Mac OS, or Free Software operating systems whose users have not installed the relevant package and accepted its license :)
