I'm surprised that The Powers That Be did not suggest/recommend/specify
a source for the fonts they are mandating. Is there someone up-line you
can ask?

The branding specifies Helvetica / Helvetica Neue for copy and Rotis Sans Serif for headings. (I hear some groaning at the already-overused Helvetica...but the edict was issued by the Powers That Be.) I'm seeing several websites from which we could buy the fonts, but there are multiple options for purchase that frankly require a deeper understanding of how fonts are handled than I possess. <sigh> Having never worked in typesetting, I feel like I'm doing a freestyle stroke across the bay and hoping I don't sink. <g>
