I tend to use #1 and #2. hard copy of everything. Loose memorization of the basic fonts. Then I really memorize the 20-50 I use regularly. If I need something for a particular feel I revert to the hard copy with a vague idea of where to look. I don't think there is a "correct" way. it ultimately comes down to what works for you. As far as clients � I get those that know fonts and those that would be fine if everything was set in Arial. Each client is different. I personally would not choose to use the same font for a client that a competiotor of theirs uses a great deal.
