I love the Pro fonts -- I typeset a scientific journal, and I converted it to from Adobe Garamond to Garamond Premiere Pro for the flexibility it offers. Besides the extended ligatures, I appreciate being able to set Greek letters and Turkish accents in names of authors.

I've been looking for a contrasting sans serif font to use for headings and figure legends (the original design uses Univers Condensed), but most of the "Pro" sans serif fonts are a little too informal or quirky (i.e., Myriad, Hypatia) to feel right in scientific communication.

Is anyone aware of a basic Helvetica-Univers-Imago style of font with a "Pro" set of characters?

Thanks.

Rodney
