What is the Arial® font?

Arial is one of the most widely used designs of the last 30 years. Drawn in 1982 by Robin Nicholas and Patricia Saunders for use in an early IBM® laser printer, Arial has become a staple for textual content. While it is widely believed that Arial’s design was based on Helvetica, it is more accurate to consider Monotype Grotesque as its ancestor.
