Quivira is a free Unicode font in the TrueType-format which is supported by every usual office program or printer. Unicode font means, it contains more than the standard characters for some western European languages.
Seen from the typographic point of view, Quivira is a proportional serif font like e.g. the more well-known Times New Roman and Garamond. As a result it is suitable if you need well readable texts.
New characters are continously added to Quivira; so it makes sense to look for new versions from time to time.
