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.
