get staff to remember that.... ; )

The uniform font for our city has always been Times New Roman - this was
set long before the days of document imaging and Optical Character
Recognition. Do you have a recommendation for a font that works best for
OCRing? I'm thinking Arial or Tahoma might be more accurately read by
the OCR feature than Times New Roman.  I'd appreciate your input before
I pursue and perhaps suggest changing the city's preferred font.

Thanks for you help.
