All the jokes about the font Calibri that you should read today

Is this the moment every graphic designer always dreamed of?

Updated 03 Jul, 2018

'Calibri,' the font we all know so well, was thrust into the spotlight as the joint investigation team (JIT) report submitted to the Supreme Court (SC) on Monday used it as evidence that documents submitted by the Sharif family were doctored.

While there remains some dispute about whether the font was in fact available before 2007 or not, Pakistanis observing the proceedings of this case were quick to unleash their wit.

To some, Calibri was the undisputed champion...

...that took its opponents by surprise

![](

Harsh!

Harsher still

Though this one might top them both

Some used this as teachable moment

We see what you did there!

There were Covfefe references

And expected puns

Who wouldn't want to be a fly on the wall?

As per WIKIPEDIA "Calibri (/kəˈliːbri/) is a humanist sans-serif typeface family designed by Lucas de Groot in 2004 and reached the general public on January 30, 2007,[1][2][3] with the release of Microsoft Office 2007 and Windows Vista on that date. In Microsoft Office 2007, it replaced Times New Roman as the default typeface in Word[4] and replaced Arial as the default in PowerPoint, Excel, Outlook, and WordPad. It continues to be the default in Microsoft Office 2010, 2013 and 2016, and it is now the default font in Office for Mac 2016."

How can anyone trust anybody in Pakistan?. Not that it was any easy anyway, Sharif family is certainly not sharif. Liars eventually do get found out. They will not be able to show their faces to anyone in Pakistan. How unfortunate?. Greed, greed and more greed gets you nowhere.
