Comparison

I'm trying to decide between these two typefaces. My criteria is for a simple san-serif typeface that will look good at full size but also be easily readable at small sizes.




The top one is Raavi, I really like the letterforms of the S and the E and the weight matches the logo well I think. The bottom one is Segoe UI. I'm not really the greatest fan of the S, I wish it would curve down a little bit more but the light weight makes it nice and easy to read.

Both of these options have their pros and cons but think I am leaning toward Segoe UI as readability is pretty high up on the marking criteria and it seems to be more easily read when reduced to 15% of its original size.
