Garamond (at 11pt) is a good font to use, rather than Times or TNR.

Subject: Font question
I discovered that my boss hates hates hates Times New Roman with a passion.
So other than Times New Roman, what are considered acceptable fonts for a
professional document?
I know Arial is one of them, but any others?
I need to amend my style guide.
Thanks!!
