This is a comprehensive guide to creating and using digital type, both in print and for the web. An introduction offers a brief history and discusses font classification and software. Step-by-step explanations are provided for creating a wide range of type effects: drop shadow, wood block style, bevel, gradient, fading type, type on curves, perforated type, and many more. Designing type for the screen presents a new set of challenges including editable HTML, type as image and how to choose fonts, type size and colour. A chapter on creating your own fonts discusses how to get the most out of industry standard software - Fontographer, Scan Font and Font Studio - and describes how to build up letterforms and refine them in Photoshop or Illustrator. Numerous creative approaches to font design discussed here include amending existing typefaces, combining typefaces and creating fonts out of found objects.
